- Summary:
- Baron explores the works of two of the most admired and mythologized masters of 19th- and 20th-century prose: Gustave Flaubert (1822-1880) and James Joyce (1882-1941). She uncovers the lifelong fascination that Joyce harboured for Flaubert and investigates how this heightened interest inflected his own creative practice.
