About this audiobook
by James Joyce
Narrated by Denis Daly
This collection of 36 short poems was published in 1907.
The title is alleged to be an ironic pun referring cryptically to the sound of urine striking the sides of a chamber pot. However, the poems have no touch of vulgarity or bawdiness.
The collection received favorable critical comments from Ezra Pound and W. B. Yeats.
Joyce later commented on the poems: "When I wrote Chamber Music, I was a lonely boy, walking about by myself at night and thinking that one day a girl would love me."

James Joyce
James Augustine Aloysius Joyce was born in Dublin in 1882. One of the most influential writers of the 20th Century, Joyce's life was punctuated by poverty, critical controversy and self-imposed exile. Joyce was one of the pioneering figures of modernism and counted W.B. Yeats and Ezra Pound amongst his earliest supporters. Before his death in 1941, Joyce had published Ulysses, Finnegan's Wake, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Dubliners; works that today are recognized as amongst the greatest achievements in literature.
