 Finnegans Wake. (from Joyce, James) --  Encyclopædia Britannica
U.S. poet Joyce Kilmer is known mainly for his 12-line verse entitled Trees, which appeared in Poetry magazine in 1913.
English novelist Joyce Cary developed a trilogy form in which each volume is narrated by one of three protagonists.
The Irish-born author James Joyce was one of the greatest literary innovators of the 20th century.

 The New York Review of Books: Out of Exile
Cary himself tacitly acknowledged this in his introduction, where he spoke of "the eternal [problem] of limits, what to bring in, to give a fair picture, what must be left out, to avoid muddle and incoherence." The novel is too long for what it tells and too short for what it would tell.
The painter Gulley Jimson, hero of Cary's "First Trilogy," also lives in the moment ("To forgive is wisdom, to forget is genius" is one of his mottoes), and Gulley shares Johnson's delight in natural beauty.
Cary's imagination seemed to thrive on sharply pitched contrasts, and the book brims with wonderful, ghastly scenes, as when a young Englishwoman of good heart and great naiveté unexpectedly finds herself at the center of an armed struggle that fells the black man beside her:

 Growing Up - AQA Anthology for GCSE
How does Joyce Cary use the exact words that people speak (shown as direct speech) to suggest their character and the situation at various points in the story.
Like several of the authors, Joyce Cary chooses a title that suggests one of the themes of the story - that of
The idea that he might leave home for good is not here presented as an option - marriage appears to be permanent for men like Robert, even if they find little or no pleasure in it.

 Amazon.com: Books: Herself Surprised (New York Review Books Classics)
Each volume of Cary's trilogy, which continues in To Be a Pilgrim and The Horse's Mouth, brings a single character to intense and memorable life and can be read entirely on its own.
I am not about to run out and order the other two books in the Joyce Cary trilogy just yet; but some day when I am book dry I know they are there and I can go back to them.
Sara's odd adventures in marriage and love make for a highly entertaining read, but you should also pay close attention to her observations of her society; for a woman of little apparent reflection, there's very little that seems to escape her notice.

Rider Haggard reveals a diverse picture of Africa: ”their appearance had a good deal in common with that of the East African Somali, only their hair was not frizzed up, and hung in thick black locks upon their shoulders”(1).
Again, it may not be linguistically correct, but It is used throughout the novel as a form of pidgin English.

 Publisher description for Library of Congress control number 92037147
Drawn there in search of literary ghosts, of the poet Umberto Saba and the novelists Italo Svevo and James Joyce, Joseph Cary found instead a city with an imaginative life of its own, the one that rises, tantalizing from the pages of this book.
Trieste's cultural and historical riches, its geographical splendor of hills and sea and mysterious presence unfold in a series of stories, monologues and literary juxtapositions that reveal the city's charms as well as its seductive hold on the writer's imagination.
In Joseph Cary, Trieste has found a new poet, and readers, a remarkably captivating companion and guide.

 Joyce Cary - Novelist
He belonged to an Anglo-Irish family from Inishowen; on his mother's side he was descended from the Joyces of Galway; hence his unusual Christian name.
After uncertain beginnings - he was an art student in Paris, took a law degree and served with the Red Cross in Montenegro - his decisive act was joining the Colonial Service in 1913; his years as an Assistant District Officer in Nigeria, and on military service in Cameroon, gave him his first, fruitful themes.
One of the finest English novelists of the first half of the 20th century, Cary was born in the house of his maternal grandfather, who was manager of the Belfast Bank in Londonderry.
