Book Reviews of Lucia Joyce: To Dance in the Wake
Book Review: Sadness for Lucia
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful book..holds you to the end. Very well written. detailed...feel sad for Lucia..Joyce did all he could for his daughter..son Georgio and Nora do not come out of it well..A tragedy that Lucia's letters were destroyed as many of them were to her father.Biographies only mention Lucia in passing, but this book tells us of her dancing in Paris when younger, and a very interesting account of her time in Ireland, where she visited places James had in his youth.Very close to James, but rift with Nora ( her mother).Very moving account of JJ trying to get his family to Zurich, when war began and unable to get a permit for Lucia.He died the next year and she saw his death in the paper, in a nursing home. Many references to Lucia in Finnegan's Wake.
