Reviews
“By reading Joyce’s concept of memory within the context of the current cultural studies movement, Rickard has deepened the idea and made it more flexible. Although a number of critics have explored this subject in one way or another, Rickard’s is easily the richest and most thorough treatment. ”—R.B. Kershner, University of Florida
“I am dazzled by what Rickard has accomplished. He articulates an approach to Joyce’s canon remarkably different from any previously published. This study will profoundly influence the next generation of Joyce scholars.”—Michael Patrick Gillespie, Marquette University
“The most comprehensive and convincing treatment of its subject to date. . . . Joyce’s Book of Memory is one of those studies that actually changes the way one thinks about its subject; indeed, it is one of the best new books on Ulysses in recent memory.”
-- Brian W. Shaffer English Literature in Transition
