It's interesting to me that there is a gray area surrounding Joyce as a postcolonial writer, in comparison to more traditional postcolonial authors, like Salman Rushdie or post-colonial theorist, Frantz Fanon.

I was curious about this line, so I did a little searching and I found this particularly interesting, since Cixous did her dissertation on Joyce:

Chiasmus, cf. Portrait bird girl, "soft and slight, slight and soft."

Chiasmus, cf. "The Dead" "falling faintly through the Universe and faintly falling."
