Item description from seller

The bindings are tight and square. Text is clean; light, even age-toning. Moderate shelf handling wear. The cloth shows mild toning along the spine and board edges. Dust jacket price-intact ($2.50), lightly rubbed at folds and edges with shallow chipping at spine crown and a few closed tears. Jacket colors remain strong, protected now in a new clear Mylar sleeve. 7.25 inches tall; x, [2], 240 pages with an index. A landmark early critical study of Joyce’s work by one of Harvard’s most influential literary scholars, issued by New Directions at the height of the modernist revival. Levin’s James Joyce: A Critical Introduction was among the first comprehensive academic analyses of Joyce’s style and structure, tracing the evolution from Dubliners to Finnegans Wake. Levin’s insights shaped postwar modernist criticism and helped secure Joyce’s place in the university canon. The inclusion of Man Ray’s frontispiece portrait underscores the book’s modernist lineage, linking avant-garde literature and photography. Subjects: James Joyce, Stream of consciousness, Modernism, New Directions Press, Man Ray photography,Literary criticism, Modernist studies, Irish literature.…
