"In this startling new analysis of Crane's long poem, Paul Giles demonstrates that the author was consciously constructing his Bridge out of a huge number of puns and paradoxes, most of which have until now never been noticed by Crane's readers. Dr. Giles shows how Crane was directly influenced by the early work of James Joyce; how the composition of The Bridge ran parallel to the first serialization of Finnegans Wake in Paris; and how The Bridge is the first great work of the 'Revolution of the Word' movement, pre-dating the final pulished version of Finnegans Wake by nine years"--Jacket.
