Focusing on the themes of irony and indeterminacy, this book explores a negative interpretation of Joyce's work, particularly "Ulysses." It examines the influences of Friedrich Schlegel and Gustave Flaubert, arguing that indeterminacy leads to nihilism. The analysis seeks, though unsuccessfully, to find authentic affirmation in the characters of Bloom and Molly. The study concludes by addressing the complex vocabulary in "Finnegans Wake," suggesting it reflects the broader poetics of indeterminacy present throughout Joyce's oeuvre.
