/lit/ can a hardcore joycer explain why these covers make sense? - /lit/ - Literature

No need to be a hard juicer, the first is sort of attributing a parenthetical or additive value to "ers" to highlight how the book is not about dubliners but Dublin, through Dubliners (I'm not saying it's a good or clever way of doing it by the way, I think it's woefully uncreative); the Y-E-S is the last word of Ulysses, which critics have wanked over quite a lot (Joyce might have too, the letters are found in the beginning as well, how quaint james) and "as a young man", I don't know, there's the obvious, but it's probably just coming on from the previous two.

If the John Green audience shifted to read James Joyce the world would be a better place.

Obvious as in basic and not very interesting: it's an oeuvre de jeunesse, by later Joyce standards, + the youthful, carefree character of hastily chalked words in contrast with printed characters.
