Exiles - A Play in Three Acts (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

"Exiles" is a 1918 play in three acts by Irish writer James Joyce. Started just after the outbreak of WWI in 1914, it is essentially a study of a husband-and-wife relationship which harks back to the final story in "Dubliners" and forward to his magus opus "Ulysses". This fantastic play will appeal to lovers of the stage and constitutes a must-read for fans and collectors of Joyce's seminal work. James Augustine Aloysius Joyce (1882-1941) was an Irish short story writer, novelist, teacher, poet, and literary critic. Joyce is famous for contributing to the modernist avant-garde and is today considered to be among the most important authors of the 20th century. Other notable works by this author include: "Ulysses" (1922), "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man" (1916), and "Dubliners" (1914). Read & Co. is republishing this classic work in a brand new edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

Autorenporträt

1882-1941. Born in Dublin, Ireland, into a family of ten children, Joyce showed singular intelligence and a gift for writing from an early age. After leaving University College Dublin with a degree in modern languages, Joyce emigrated to Europe, living in Italy, Zurich and Paris. A string of short stories, including Dubliners, were followed by his first novel, Portrait of an Artist in 1916, and then the controversial but very successful Ulysses in 1922, a work in which he perfected his stream-of-consciousness style and made his name as a great literary figure. Joyce died in Zurich in 1941, two years after the publication of Finnegans Wake, his long-awaited follow up novel which earned him further honours.
