Description: Joyce and the G-men : J. Edgar Hoover’s Manipulation of Modernism, Paperback by Culleton, C., ISBN 1349386421, ISBN-13 9781349386420, Like New Used, Free P&P in the UK Several years ago on a whim, Culleton requested James Joyces FBI file. Hoover had Joyce under surveillance as a suspected Communist, and the chain of cross-references that Culleton followed from Joyces file lead her to obscenity trials and, less obviously, to a plot to assassinate Irish labour leader James Larkin. Hoover devoted a great deal of energy to keeping watch on intellectuals and considered literature to be dangerous on a number of levels. Joyce and the G-Men explores how these linkages are indicative of the culture of the FBI under Hoover, and the resurgence of American anti-intellectualism.
