BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

In 1929 James Joyce was living in Paris, internationally established as a writer. Suddenly he stopped work and began to devote virtually all his time to promoting the career of an Irish tenor, John O'Sullivan.

This programme is about what he did, why it happened, and the effect of his obsession on his life and work. The story is told by Arnold Goldman, author of The Joyce Paradox, with contributions from Mme Eugene Jolas, Nino Frank, Robert Gwynne, Alexander Kipnis, Philippe Soupault and the late Mme Paul Leon, with Norman Rodway as James Joyce

followed by an interlude
