121 Works on Paper 330 JOYCE, JAMES. FinnegansWake London: 1971. [iv], 628 pp. Orange cloth. Fine copy in fine dust jacket. Joyce’s last and most innovative work in a style which he referred to as “great part of every human experience is passed in a state which cannot be rendered sensible by the use of wide-awake lan- guage, cutanddry grammar and goahead plot”. Throughout the ‘Wake’ (as in a dream), the charac- ters appear in many guises and undergo numerous transmutations that range from the mythological to the geographical. As to the exact identity of the dreamer (or dreamers), there is speculation and mystery. € 150 - 250 331 JOYCE, JAMES. Ulysses London Folio Society 2004, Preface by Stephen J. Joyce.
