DanMulhall: You had the prose of logic and of scorn,
And words to sledge an iron argument,
And yet you could draw down the outland birds
To perch behind the ravens of your thought —
The dreams whereby a people challenges
Its dooms, its bounds.

leninology: “Padraic Colum recalls "from time to time [being] asked to suggest a word that would be more obscure than the word already there," only to have Joyce reply "five times out of six," in what amounts to an ad-mission that his designs were darkly principled, "I can't use it."”
RobertBohan: He published the play Exiles in 1918. It is considered as a bridge between The Dead & Ulysses. It was, however, rejected by WB Yeats for The Abbey. It did not receive a positive reception & even Joyce’s close friend, the poet Padraic Colum, had to admit its limitations.
matthewlloyd85: Gaiman certainly offers a more modern take than Padraic Colum, although Colum was more expansive, with many more stories. The key difference seems to be that Gaiman focuses almost exclusively on the gods themselves rather than mortals, who make up about half of Colum.

johnstonglenn: Two Joyce associates reviewed Finnegans Wake OTD in 1939: Padraic Colum in the NY Times and Oliver St John Gogarty in the Observer. "We have novels that give us greatly a three dimensional world: here is a narrative that gives a new dimension," said Colum.
