"Indispensable, both as a text in classes on Joyce and as a model
of literary scholarship."--Richard Stack, State University of New
York, Purchase
"The genius of Ellmann's James Joyce is its abundance of
detail--its wealth of anecdotes and letters, recovered
conversations, and poems. It's a pleasure to salute this masterly
book as it marches past again."--Newsweek
"An exceptional achievement....An indispensable book for Joyce
scholars and Joyce-lovers....Fascinating."--The Nation
"Ellmann produced a work whose brilliance and sheer readability set
a new standard for literary biography. Updating the volume, he has
taken advantage of two decades of research and discovery,
incorporating new material gleaned largely from private as well as
university and national collections, so that virtually every
page...contains new information....In reading over these pages, one
cannot help but feel renewed admiration for Ellmann and his
magnificent
achievement."--Booklist
"Revised, expanded and wonderful."--The New York Times
Praise for the first edition:
"The best literary biography of our time."--Robert Martin Adams,
Hudson Review
