"Come come, Mr. Joyce," said the editor of a minor review journal when Joyce's article mocked the book in question. "I could put my head out that window right now and find 15 people to review it." Joyce: "Review what, your head?"
Its "Dubliners", not "The Dubliners", and its a book of short stories, not a novel. Not the only error; whoever wrote/checked the narration did a sloppy job.
Where did the documentary production team dig up that pseudo-scientist from? More to the point, what is the basis of her psychoanalysis of Joyce's character? Did she dig him up and place him upon her couch for some in depth Freudian style quackery? I believe that she is experiencing some deeply pent up sexual frustration (obviously rooted in her subconscious) in relation to Joyce, which is manifesting itself on the subconscious level through her assassination attempt upon his sterling character - she is unable to kill him physically in the present, so she is seeking to punish him in the afterlife by undermining his contemporary image. Of course it could just be old fashioned penis envy. How's that for psychoanalysis!?!?

How interesting to have a Jesuit priest among the contributors - Father Bradley's comments are excellent
