Praise for this book

"With a seventeen-page chronology of all the translations of Finnegans Wake (FW), in part and whole, a comprehensive Bibliography, as well as an Appendix specifically only of all known ALP translations, Finnegans Wakes is an invaluable reference work. Finnegans Wakes makes for quite fascinating reading as well, and should especially be of considerable interest to anyone interested in FW and/or in translation."

"Patrick O'Neill's Finnegans Wakes: Tales of Translation serves up a rich, welcome translation history of Joyce's book that not only reveals how far the Wake has come in eighty years but likewise yields tantalizing avenues for further exploration."
