Through examining the work of W. B. Yeats, James Joyce, and Samuel Beckett, Katherine Ebury shows cosmology had a considerable impact on modernist creative strategies, developing alternative reading models of difficult texts such as Finnegans Wake and 'The Trilogy'.

Katherine Ebury is a Lecturer in Modern Literature at the University of Sheffield, UK. Her reviews and articles have appeared in Joyce Studies Annual, Journal of Modern Literature, Modernism/Modernity, James Joyce Quarterly and Journal of Literature and Science.
