"The Irish novelist whose works - Dubliners, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man - are rooted in Ireland, though he spent most of his life in self-exile. His revolutionary innovations in the novel - interior monologues, unique language - have made an indelible impression on English literature. A truly magnificent photograph"--W.M.
