The Real People of Joyce's Ulysses: A Biographical Guide
Dubliner and Joycean scholar Vivien Igoe leaves no stone uncovered in revealing the biographies of hundreds of people in Joyce's works that had previously been deemed fictional. Lavishly illustrated, the book provides a comprehensive A to Z of these real people with detailed information about where they lived, died and are buried; worked, intermingled and found inspiration. The newly discovered information in The Real People of Joyce's Ulysses amplifies how Joyce manipulated and drew on a very intimate knowledge of Dublin and its inhabitants. ""A rich, encyclopedic treatment of the hundreds of little-known figures who appear in the novel... Igoe draws on an extensive array of primary sources and contemporary historical scholarship...Highly recommended.""--Choice ""[Igoe] knows Joyce's characters and his city better than any other living writer, and so this guide brings to life a lost world with meticulousness that the author himself would have admired.""--Irish Voice
