Four of Joyce's six books complete: Portrait / Exiles / collected poems / Dubliners, as wells excerpts from Ulysses and Finnegans Wake.; 760 pages.
The book features the best of the writings of James Joyce. Now, one may not always have the completed work of the author, rather just a few chapters or a section of a work but it leaves you anxious for more from the author. Well, this collection does not disappoint!
The pages may be slightly yellowed but are easily readable in this paperback version. To say these are not excerpts of his finest work would be a lie however to get complete works ion one volume is just silly. The volume is handsomely dressed in an oversized paperback, and table of contents explains how much of the actual work if profiled inside.
