Dubliners, his olume of short stories, has been reset in the definitive 1968 text, restoring Hoyce's manuscript style and his late corrections. the others are collected Poems including Chamber Music, plus 2 "uncollected" poems, and Exiles, his only drama. In additoin, ther is a generous smapling from Ulysses and Finnegan's wake,. including the famous "Anna Livia Plurablle" epidsode.
