The first separate publication of this fragment of Finnegans Wake which was published in installments over seventeen years before being issued as a complete book in 1939. Sylvia Beach the owner of the legendary Parisian bookstore Shakespeare & Co. had published Ulysses in 1922 and continued to foster Joyce's career during the following decade. She wrote in her 1959 memoir that Anna Livia Plurabelle gave her some trouble. She and Joyce tried to get the piece published in various literary periodicals with limited success. The Calendar accepted it only to be thwarted by its own printers who refused to set up a passage they found obscene. The printers at Princeton University Press which printed this luxurious limited edition for the New York bon vivant Crosby Gaige apparently had no such qualms. Crosby Gaige unknown books
