From a young age, James Joyce showed a precocious, original intellect and a confidence in his own artistic destiny. He would indeed go on to transform the nature of modern literature, employing a unique stream-of-consciousness technique rich in symbolism and wordplay. Through his art, the Dublin native sought to reveal the radiance and meaning that lurks in the everyday world, "the soul of the commonest object,” evoking a heightened sense of consciousness within the grit of common life.
James Joyce in 90 Minutes offers a concise, expert account of Joyce’s life and ideas, and explains their influence on literature and on man’s struggle to understand his place in the world. The book also includes a list of Joyce’s chief works, a chronology of his life and times, and recommended reading for those who wish to delve deeper.

“Promise[s] to get readers up to speed…in 100 pages or so with no dumbing down.”
(New York Times on the series)“[Strathern] offers insights on great authors so you can understand and enjoy them. Brainy!”
(Birmingham News on the series)“The books are not mere outlines for dummies. They're lucid narratives.”
(The Tennessean on the series)“A new-millenium version of Cliffs Notes...Breezy, chatty, and to the point. Perfect for those hungry for literature.”
(ForeWord on the series)“Reading one of Strathern’s texts is comparable to attending the lecture of a noted professor.”
(Kliatt on the series)“Perfect for both general interest and high school collections.”
(Library Bookwatch on the series)
