Über den Autor
James Joyce (1882-1941) was born into a reasonably wealthy Dublin family that was plunged into financial hardship. Educated at University College, Dublin, he met Nora Barnacle in 1904, and they eloped to Croatia. For the rest of his life he lived as an exile moving from Trieste to Rome, Zurich and Paris. His major works are Dubliners (1914), A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916), Ulysses (1922) and Finnegan's Wake (1939), and he is regarded as one of the greatest novelists the world has ever produced.
