The Fictions of James Joyce and Wyndham Lewis

The literary relationship of James Joyce and Wyndham Lewis has been described in merely biographical terms; but here Scott W. Klein reveals hitherto unperceived textual affiliations between the two authors. The seeing eye and the world the creating mind and fiction and the processes of history appear in the work of both Joyce and Lewis as related thematic structures of opposition reconciliation and dialectic. Professor Klein''s study adds to our understanding of Joyce and Lewis and revises current perceptions of modernism.
