Book excerpt: This landmark study provides a theory of social values subtle and complex enough to show the rich development of Joyce's vision. The theories of Gilles Deleuze serve Richard's innovative argument that Ulysses moves beyond the representational style of ots first half, which is geared to masculine values, into counter-representational styles in the second half that spring from feminine resistance. The idea that the changing styles of the second half enact the beginning of woman, which then aims at the production of new combinations, provides a striking new perspective....Richard's dense, coherent book is one of the best Joyce studies of the 1990s."
