This review is from: Names and Naming in Joyce (Hardcover)

I have just finished reading Culleton's Names and Naming, and I found it to be both a valueable and interesting research tool. I can't wait to incorporate it into my Lit. classes!!

5.0 out of 5 stars An enjoyable read. Humorous and Scholarly., October 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Names And Naming In Joyce (Paperback)

I liked this book very much. SO much Joyce criticism is dry and dull. Culleton's work displays a kind of scholarship and humor not found in much Joyce criticism. I would recommend this book highly. It not only theorizes Joyce's use of names but it teaches you valuable information on Joyce, on modern literature, on modernity.

This review is from: Names and Naming in Joyce (Hardcover)

I recommend this book. It is nicely written and well researched. I like the way the writer makes connections throughout her book. It is a very helpful text and enjoyable to read (in fact, hilarious at places). A very interesting topic.
