As he was finishing Finnegans Wake, Joyce proclaimed, “I have discovered I can do anything with language I want.” Indeed, with his last book, which took him seventeen years to write, Joyce takes literary modernism to new territories by harvesting from as many as eighty different languages to create a wordscape that is both precise and impressionistic, a work that is intellectual, avant-garde, but also sad, funny, earthy and brimming with humanity.
This edition includes an introduction by Dr Sam Slote of Trinity College Dublin.

Born in Dublin, James Joyce (1882-1941) spent most of his life abroad, living in Trieste, Paris and Zurich. His writings, however, mainly centre on Dublin - most famously Ulysses, Dubliners and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. He pioneered and perfected avant-garde prose techniques that saw him rise to the rank of one of Europe's foremost Modernists.
In Finnegans Wake, which ostensibly describes a single night through the consciousness of a Dublin publican, James Joyce took his approach to literary modernism into new territories of experimentation and stream-of-consciousness, eschewing conventional syntax and punctuation and writing in a language of neologisms, puns and portmanteaux. While the result is puzzling and avant-garde, it is also brimming with humour and humanity and has been proclaimed by many critics as Joyce's masterpiece. This edition, published to coincide with the eightieth anniversary of the first publication in 1939, fully incorporates Joyce's manuscript amendments and includes a critical introduction by Dr Sam Slote of Trinity College Dublin.
