Collection of critical essays, and two letters, on the subject of James Joyce’s book FINNEGANS WAKE, then being published in discrete sections under the title of Work in Progress. Part of the incentive to publish was apparently to raise funds for the perennially impecunious Joyce. Beckett’s first appearance in print.

BECKETT, Samuel; Marcel Brion, Frank Budgen, Stuart Gilbert, Eugen Jolas, Victor Llona, Robert McAlmon, Thomas McGreevy, Elliot Paul, John Rodker, Robert Sage and William Carlos Williams. With letters of protest by G.V.L. Slingsby and Vladimir Dixon.

Very Good + cloth copy in tatty dustjacket.

First Edition, UK issue.

Originally published by Shakespeare & Co. in 1929
