DEATH IN VENCE

I was very happy to see the article by Nora Joyce-biographer, Brenda Maddox, in the July 22 Book Review. As an avid Joycean who doesn’t really fit into any of Maddox’s categories, I enjoyed reading the comparison and the characterizations of conference-goers. I was shocked, however, to see the title of Joyce’s last work manhandled.

Editor’s Note: Lawrence died in Vence, France; not Venice, Italy. The title of Joyce’s last work is “Finnegans Wake,” not “Finnegan’s Wake.” Both of these errors were introduced in editing.
