James Joyce was born in Dublin, Ireland, on February 2, 1882. He was the oldest of ten children in a family that experienced increasing financial difficulties during his childhood. After attending Clongowes Wood College and Belvedere College in Dublin, he entered the Royal University. Upon his graduation, in 1902, Joyce left Ireland for France but returned the following year because his mother was dying. In 1904 he met Nora Barnacle, and in October of that year they went together to Europe, settling in Trieste. In 1909 and again in 1912 Joyce made unsuccessful attempts to publish "Dubliners." In 1914 the book finally appeared, followed by the semiautobiographical novel "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man." During the First World War Joyce and Nora lived in Zurich; in 1920 they moved to Paris, where "Ulysses" was published in 1922. "Finnegans Wake," Joyce's most radical and complex work, began appearing in installments in 1928 and was published in its entirety in 1939. After the German occupation of Paris, Joyce and Nora (who were married in 1931) moved to Zurich, where he died in January 1941.
