Synopsis

Edouard Dujardin's "The Bays are Sere", first published in 1887, was the first novel written entirely in interior monologue or stream of consciousness. For a long time its impact was dormant, until James Joyce read it in 1903 and subsequently revealed its influence upon him. As a result it was republished to great acclaim in 1924, after which Dujardin wrote "Interior Monologue", an essay on the origin of this style and how he came to adopt it. This book was freely translated into English by Joyce's friend Stuart Gilbert and published in 1938 as "We'll To The Woods No More". The present completely new translation is faithful to the original and reproduces all Dujardin's innovations. "Interior Monologue" is translated here for the first time. Edouard Dujardin (1861-1947) was editor of the "Revue Wagerienne", one of the most influential literary journals in Paris in the 1885. He was a poet and playwright who also wrote on the history of religion.
