The James Joyce Quarterly

The James Joyce Quarterly was founded in 1963 at the University of Tulsa by Thomas F. Staley, who was the journal’s editor for its first twenty-five years. Beginning as a modest publication of forty pages, the JJQ grew in size and quality under Staley’s guidance and was soon unchallenged as the journal of record on the life and writings of James Joyce.

"[The Booker] judges might have thought this a more flawed book than the densely perfect A Girl… In the closing sections… there is no longer the sense I admired in the first half."

The Lesser Bohemians by Eimear McBride review – a brilliant evocation of sex and intimacy https://t.co/UUAsk3N6Ke

I was disappointed that through the middle section of The Lessor Bohemians, Eimear McBride seems to have lost her way. It’s too long and doesn’t ring true. The author tells us in detail about the older man more than the character she has created reveals himself in ways we have to discover for ourselves. He’s delivered prefab and dropped into place. Unfortunately she doesn’t recover her footing, even needlessly revisiting Stephen's too-sharp self knowledge in the last scenes.

My hero: Eimear McBride on James Joyce

Joyce really set my universe on its end. Reading Ulysses changed everything I thought about language, and everything I understood about what a book could do. I was on a train on the way to a boring temp job when I was about 25; I got on at Tottenham, north London, and opened the first page of Ulysses. When I got off at Liverpool Street in central London, I don't think it is an exaggeration to say the entire course of my life had changed. Although he is viewed as terribly serious and cerebral, so much of the pleasure of reading Joyce is the fun he has and the risks he takes with language; there is nothing quite so enjoyable as the much-maligned Joycean pun.
