📱 eBook en inglés FINNEGANS WAKE (SUMMARIZED EDITION)

Finnegans Wake (Unabridged) is James Joyces audacious night-book, a cyclical dream epic where Dublin becomes a world-river and language the protagonist. Following Humphrey Chimpden Earwicker, Anna Livia Plurabelle, and their children Shem, Shaun, and Issy, the text recomposes history through polyglot portmanteau, pun, and song. Its Viconian cycles, folkloric and biblical palimpsests, and the fall-and-rise of Finnegan place it at the far edge of High Modernism, where narrative dissolves into an acoustic, multilingual weave meant to be heard as much as read. Joyce, the Irish modernist exile, worked on the Wake from 1923 to 1939 while battling failing eyesight and endless revision. A polyglot steeped in European tongues, he drew on Vicos cyclical philosophy, anthropology, popular song, cinema, and notebooks of street talk to forge a total book of the night that folds colonial history, family romance, and gossip into a single riverine dream. This unabridged edition rewards reading aloud and with companions or guides; its music reveals pattern where grammar resists. Scholars of modernism, linguists, and adventurous readers will find inexhaustible wit and rigor beneath the seeming chaos. If Ulysses mapped the day, Finnegans Wake maps the archetypal night—approach it as a score, and let its rhythms carry you.
