    • Here, in one volume, is a selection of Joyce's work which covers his entire writing life. Four books – Chamber Music, Dubliners, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, and Exiles – are published in full, together with generous representative extracts from Pomes Penyeach, Ulysses and Finnegans Wake. The texts are supplemented by an introduction and critical and explanatory notes by Harry Levin, a leading authority on Joyce. --back cover
