Finnegans Wake Av James Joyce

<b>'A great comic vision, one of the few books of the world that can make us laugh aloud on nearly every page' - Anthony Burgess</b><br><br>James Joyce's final work, <i>Finnegans Wake</i>, conjures up the dark underground worlds of sexuality and dream with supreme linguistic virtuosity. Here Joyce undermines traditional storytelling and the English language, and confronts the different kinds of betrayal – cultural, political and sexual – that he saw at the heart of Irish history. Dazzlingly inventive, with passages of great lyrical beauty and humour, <i>Finnegans Wake</i> remains one of the most remarkable works of the twentieth century.<br><br>‘Here words are not the polite contortions of twentieth-century printer’s ink. They are alive. They elbow their way on to the page, and glow and blaze and fade and disappear’ Samuel Beckett<br><br>With a new introduction by Brian Fox.
