James Joyce
Made to Order at Juniper Custom in Boulder, Colorado
Reading James Joyce is a celebrated challenge, and one of literature's great rewards: complete absorption in the mind of a singular genius. His experimental prose set the standard for Modernism, from the quiet epiphanies of Dubliners to a single Dublin day in Ulysses. For this Everyman's Library set, our designers chose a deliberate contrast: Joyce's portrait rendered in a modern style, with crisp type and strong lines, a counterpoint to the intricacy of the texts. It is a set for the serious reader, the Bloomsday devotee, and anyone ready at last to begin Ulysses.
