James Augustine Aloysius Joyce (2 February 1882 – 13 January 1941) was an 
Irish novelist, short story writer, and poet. He contributed to the modernist 
avant-garde and is regarded as one of the most influential and important authors 
of the 20th century. Joyce is best known for Ulysses (1922), a landmark work in 
which the episodes of Homer's Odyssey are paralleled in a variety of literary 
styles, perhaps most prominently stream of consciousness. Other well-known works 
are the short-story collection Dubliners (1914), and the novels A Portrait of 
the Artist as a Young Man (1916) and Finnegans Wake (1939). His other writings 
include three books of poetry, a play, his published letters and occasional 
journalism. (Quoted from Wikipedia.org)
