Joyce made several typed versions of manuscripts before and after sending fair copies to John Quinn. This page from “Sirens” was sent to printers at the Little Review, an American literary magazine, in 1919 for the novel's initial serialization. Joyce’s handwritten revisions date from 1921, however, as he was beginning to assemble and revise his text for the first edition in Paris.
