Poems Synopsis

The poems published in Joyce's own lifetime collected in a new edition, with an introduction and notes by scholar Clare Hutton

'His writing is not about something; it is that something itself' Samuel Beckett

James Joyce's towering genius as a novelist has often overshadowed his achievements as a poet, yet his verse occupies a pivotal position in his career. This new edition comprises all the poetry that was published in Joyce's lifetime, including his extraordinary 1907 debut 'Chamber Music', which fused exuberant lyricism with sharp irony, and the later collection 'Pomes Penyeach', which confronted adultery, jealousy and betrayal. Also included here is 'Ecce Puer', written for his new-born grandson, as well as juvenilia, satires, translations, limericks and a parody of Samuel Taylor Coleridge.
