About the Author
James Joyce (1882-1941) revolutionized twentieth-century writing with his use of the "stream of consciousness" technique. While ingeniously innovative and experimental, he was also a keenly precise chronicler of the people, places, and sounds of his native Dublin. His other works include A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Finnegans Wake, and Ulysses, which is widely regarded as the greatest novel of the twentieth century.

Experience Joyce as he was meant to be!,
By Kevin Brezler (kb9834a@american.edu) (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The James Joyce Audio Collection (Audio Cassette)
The James Joyce Audio Collection is a captivating and enjoyable set of Joyce's best works, read by Joyce himself and three other wonderful performers. The Joyce readings are amazingly remastered, and it is an "epiphany" to listen to a writer like Joyce to read from "Ulysses," his most inspired and personal work. Other highlights of the collection include Cyril Cusack's spirited readings from Joyce's "Portrait of An Artist as a Young Man" This passionate performance brings Joyce's prose to dazzling life and it is an unforgettable experience. This collection is a great way to experience Joyce's literature as it was meant to be; lyrical and vibrant.
