Description
James Joyce's most important innovation was to use language to mirror the reader, enabling those willing to read with openness and active curiosity to attain greater self-understanding and a fuller appreciation of others. His approach to language was joyful, participatory, and musical. The Joyce of Everyday Life is a celebration of language as a means of revitalizing daily experience and social interactions across a diverse, ever-changing world. It is an exercise in a different kind of literary criticism, one that is in meaningful dialogue with the issues of everyday life--sleeping, writing, lovemaking, reading, and eating. Here Vicki Mahaffey uses Joyce's entire corpus to illustrate how we can think--and laugh--along the "veins" of language--its etymologies, sounds, imagery, allusive echoes--to reinvigorate aspects of everyday life that have become flat or mundane, while gaining greater self-acceptance and appreciation for others.
