1928réf. 172029New York: Crosby Gaige 1928. A choice example of this predecessor to the Wake First edition signed limited issue number 666 of 800 copies signed by the author. Copies are rare in the publisher's glassine and slipcase which are unrecorded by the bibliographers Slocum & Cahoon. This edition which included a further 50 unsigned copies printed on green paper and bound in black cloth precedes the British edition by two years. Anna Livia Plurabelle is an early published chapter from Joyce's famous "Work in Progress" that eventually became Finnegans Wake 1939. T. S. Eliot thought it an excellent chapter to select for early publication writing that "this fantasy of the course of the river Liffey is the best-known part of Finnegans Wake and is the best introduction to it" p. 7. Duodecimo. Original brown cloth spine lettered and decorated in gilt blind rules and dog-tooth roll on covers front cover with gilt triangular centrepiece top edge gilt fore and bottom edges untrimmed. In publisher's glassine and original green card slipcase. Two later postcards with Joyce's portrait one by Man Ray loosely inserted.

réf. 98347New York Crosby Gaige 1928. . FIRST EDITION no. 3 of six numbered copies of 50 COPIES ON PALE GREEN-TINTED PAPER from an overall limitation of 850; 8vo; title previously detached cleanly at gutter now with neat reversible tissue paper repair to verso chip from fore-edge of a preliminary blank leaf slight separation at upper hinge bookplate to front pastedown; publisher's black cloth lettered in gilt on the spine and with triangular gilt design on upper cover top edge gilt presented in morocco-backed cloth drop-back box. The first edition of Anna Livia Plurabelle by James Joyce the text that was to become chapter eight in Finnegans Wake and introduce Joyce readers to the character that fellow Irish author Edna O'Brien was to describe as 'the most accessible and indeed beloved character conceived by Joyce'. Slocum and Cahoon note that: 'Of these 50 copies on light green paper probably 6 were offered for sale by the publisher. These were numbered 1 to 6 with the following notice on p.iv in the handwriting of Crosby Gaige: This is one of 6 copies on green paper. Crosby Gaige.'; however this copy is simply numbered '3' and does not bear the publisher's statement on the limitation page. The remaining 44 copies were presumably disseminated by Crosby Gaige with the exception of a few which were passed on to the Chaucer Head Book Shop New York by Random House in 1938.

1920réf. 021432Paris 24 November 1920. Letter. Close to Fine. Small 4-1/2" x 6-1/2" AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED "James Joyce" to Madame Yasushi Tanaka Louise Gebhard Cann on blue paper integral with envelope which is addressed in Joyce's hand and postmarked on the verso. In full: "Dear Madam In reply to your letter I shall call on you on Sunday afternoon next as it seems to be the most convenient time for you. Sincerely yours James Joyce." Louise Gebhard Cann was a prominent writer and art critic in early 20th century France. At Ezra Pounds suggestion Cann wrote to Joyce requesting an interview with him for an article on writers in France set to appear in an upcoming issue of THE PACIFIC REVIEW. Following publication of the "Nausicaa" episode of ULYSSES in THE LITTLE REVIEW the previous year Joyces writing was deemed obscene. This particular issue of THE LITTLE REVIEW was effectively banned in the United States and it is believed that because of the controversy the editors then decided to omit any mention of Joyce from the finished article published in the March 1921 issue of THE PACIFIC REVIEW.

1955réf. 414208Cambridge Massachusetts: The Poets' Theatre Workshop 1955. Hardcover. Good. Broadside illustrated in color on stiff cardstock. Measuring 10.25" x 13.75". Two incorrectly used printed apostrophes are whited-out by hand some horizontal creases and a small light stain near very good. Poster for Manning’s stage adaptation of Joyce’s novel that Manning arranged in 1955 as The Voice of Shem. Manning was a regular cast member at the Abbey Theatre a playwright and was a filmmaker. After a distinguished career in Ireland she moved to Boston where she served as managing director of the Idler Theatre at Radcliffe College in the 1940s and was one of the founding members of the Poet’s Theatre in Cambridge in 1950. The poster notes that tickets were on sale at the Mandrake Book Store on Boylston Street in Cambridge. Interesting period-style illustration of a beer quaffer blathering over the cantilevered corpse of Finnegan. The original performances were in April of 1955; this return engagement ran for little more than a week in late November and early December 1955. OCLC locates no copies of the poster although copies of Manning's adaptation in book form published by the Harvard University Press are plentiful. We found a black and white rendition of the poster image online on a French blog but could find no illuminating information there. Presumably these posters would have been extremely ephemeral.

réf. 9788573215892ILUMINURAS. new. Enquanto escrevia a sua obra da maturidade considerada pela cr�tica como uma das mais inovadoras da literatura mundial o escritor irlands James Joyce 1882-1941 correspondeu-se assiduamente com a editora inglesa Harriet Shaw Weaver 1876-1961 respons�vel pela publicao de Um retrato do artista quando jovem na Inglaterra. Nas cartas que enviou a ela o escritor descreve minuciosamente o seu trabalho criativo destacando a estrutura narrativa e a linguagem de Ulisses e Finnegans Wake ao mesmo tempo que faz confisses e revela as suas agruras econmicas e familiares como o estado de sade preocupante de seus filhos e mais particularmente de sua filha Lucia: ""Alguma doena misteriosa foi aos poucos tomando conta dos meus dois filhos os m�dicos esto inclinados a remontar a sua origem nossa residncia na Su�a durante a guerra e se eles no conseguirem fazer nada por eles ela � a culpada no eles"". Weaver queria inicialmente ajudar na publicao e na divulgao dos livros desse escritor que tanto admirava mas aos poucos foi tamb�m auxiliando-o a pr a sua vida financeira e familiar em ordem ao oferecer-lhe anonimamente altas somas e ao dar-lhe apoio moral e psicol�gico. Weaver chegou a hospedar em casa Lucia Joyce que sofria de esquizofrenia e cujo comportamento era imprevis�vel Lucia a via ora como amiga ora como um carcereiro e como aconteceu em outras ocasies fez esse favor ao grande romancista sem nenhuma exigncia pois no esperava dele recompensas: desejava apenas que ele finalizasse a sua obra. Por tudo isso podemos considerar Weaver uma figura fundamental na vida do escritor: ""a pessoa que fez a vida de Joyce como escritor ser poss�vel a amiga desconhecida e generosa ."" como opinou o cr�tico ingls Peircy Muir. Richard Ellmann se referia a Harriet Wever como uma ""mulher extraordin�ria"" cuja generosidade continuou pelo resto da vida de Joyce e mesmo depois pois Weaver pagou no somente o seu funeral como tamb�m o de Nora Joyce mulher do escritor.
