READING FINNEGANS WAKE is Boldereff's pioneering interpretive study of James Joyce's Finnegans Wake, divided into two sections: Bluest Book in Baile's Annals and Idioglossary He Invented. Boldereff explores Joyce's mythic structure, linguistic inventiveness, and historical layering, producing one of the earliest and most original critical readings of Finnegans Wake published in the United States. Boldereff (19061993) was an American Joyce scholar, typographer, and correspondent of Ezra Pound and Charles Olson. Her work anticipated later feminist and structural readings of Joyce and remains a cornerstone in mid-century modernist criticism.
