"The Exile of James Joyce"
by Michael Patrick Gillespie
Professor of English
Florida International University
at The Roger Smith Hotel

Lexington Ave at 47th St
New York City


"The Exile of James Joyce" suggests that both nostalgia and rancor
operate throughout Joyce's canon, and it focuses attention on Dubliners
to show that previous readings while effectively showing the anger Joyce
felt at the Dublin he left behind have not given sufficient attention to
his attachment to Ireland.
