James Joyce: Poems

James Joyce is most celebrated for his remarkable novel Ulysses , and yet he was also an accomplished poet. Chamber Music , his debut collection, fused the styles of the Celtic Revival with his own brand of ironic exuberance. Pomes Penyeach , a collection written when Joyce had published Dubliners and was completing A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man , explores intimate themes of adultery, jealousy, and betrayal that would reappear transformed in the later Ulysses . Joyce''s occasional verse includes the well-known "Ecce Puer," written for his newborn grandson, and his satirical poems "The Holy Office" and "Gas from a Burner." These poems are brought together here with Joyce''s play, Exiles --about an unconventional couple involved in a love triangle--in a beautiful, accessible hardcover edition for the general reader.>
