Ulysses - James Joyce. First edition 1922<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYes\u201d\u2014<\/em>the final word of Ulysses\u2014<\/em>was put down by Joyce in 1921, after seven years of labor. There was no chance of its seeing print in Britain or America; it re\u00admained for Miss Sylvia Beach to bring it out in Paris. The reactions of critics ranged from \u201cgreatest\u201d to \u201cfoulest.\u201d In England and the United States there was great indignation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It wasn\u2019t until 1933 that Judge John M. Woolsey\u2019s landmark ruling made it possible for Random House to bring out Ulysses<\/em> here, and for Joyce to make some money on it, rather than sitting in frus\u00adtration and watching the pirates clean up on illegal editions. Yet Joyce didn\u2019t be\u00adcome wealthy by a long shot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He was spending most of his time on his last book, Finnegan's Wake,<\/em> which he began in 1923 and completed in 1938. It came out the following year, and the year after that the Germans invaded France. Joyce asked for a visa from the Swiss, who demanded a bond of $7,000 which the indigent author couldn\u2019t sup\u00adply. His friends raised $3,500, which was accepted, and the Joyces went back to Zurich\u2014except for Lucia, ill in a sanato\u00adrium, who remained in occupied France. That, plus constant worries over his fail\u00ading eyesight and his struggles with pub\u00adlishers, was more than enough for the frail man. An ulcer became malignant and he died on January 13, 1941.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man<\/em> (novel, The Egoist Ltd, London, 1916)<\/li>
After earning his bachelor\u2019s degree in 1902, Joyce departed for Paris, carrying a letter of introduction from the Lord Mayor of Dublin, one pound in cash, and some poems. (In Portrait<\/em> young Stephen says, \u201cI will not serve that in which I no longer believe, whether it call itself my home, my fatherland, or my church. . . .\u201d) He attended one class at the College de Medecine but dropped out when asked to pay cash in advance. He was soon practically starving, getting mixed up in various adventures, includ\u00ading a near-duel with a pro-Aryan Ger\u00adman. (Joyce hated that kind of preju\u00addice.) In April 1903 he had to return to Dublin to his dying mother\u2019s bedside; not long after her death he left home to live in rented rooms around town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the spring of 1904, James Joyce was teach\u00ading school when he met Nora Barnacle, a witty, auburn-haired Galway girl; by Oc\u00adtober they were on their way to Zurich, supposedly married. Nora remained at his side throughout his life; a son, Gior\u00adgio, was born in 1905 and a daughter, Lucia, in 1907. (In 1931 they were \u201cre\u00admarried\u201d for legal reasons.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the next few years Joyce made a modest living on the Continent teaching English at Berlitz schools and picking up change in other ways. They lived mostly in Trieste, although when World War I broke out they returned to neutral Zu\u00adrich. Joyce revisited Dublin three times, the last time in 1912. After the war he settled in Paris, where things improved slightly as his writings began to earn meager royalties. Yet he was always one jump from the poorhouse; the tragic thing is that his life was a long battle to get his work published. When the cli\u00admate changed, the author wasn\u2019t here to reap the rewards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
James Joyce\u2019s first publication was Chamber Music,<\/em> a small volume of poems rejected by four Irish publishers, the last of whom failed to return the manuscript.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When it finally saw the light of day in 1907, Chamber Music<\/em> (named in mockery after the sound Joyce made by kicking a nightjar) received favorable notices and at least five composers made settings of the songs. Joyce never earned a penny from the book. Though he had finished Dubliners,<\/em> his highly acclaimed collection of short stories, in 1904, the squeamish\u00adness of the Edwardian era made publica\u00adtion impossible till 1914. One printer had even set the type, but had a change of heart and deliberately destroyed the pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In 1914 A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man<\/em> was completed. As usual, no takers.
