<p><i>I love fire. Fire is the colour of genius.</i><br><br>In this audacious new work, Edna O¿Brien gives voice to the women who were central to the life of James Joyce.<br><br>¿James Joyce had been my ultimate hero for sixty years, but to paint the canvas of his life was daunting. Therefore I decided to depict him as seen by the key figures in his life - Mother, Wife, Mistress of a fleeting moment, his patron Harriet Weaver and his beloved Daughter Lucia, of whom he said her mind was but a transparent leaf away from his.¿<br><br>Written to celebrate the centenary of <i>Ulysses</i>, <i>Joyce¿s Women</i> premiered at the Abbey Theatre, Dublin, in September 2022. <b>This revised edition includes changes made by the author during rehearsals and previews of the play''s first production. </b></p>
