Authors: J

Clive James - Really entertaining and comprehensive official site of this wise and witty author, broadcaster, presenter... nice design too

Henry James - Good starting point for all things Henry James, plus a very generous selection of downloadable e-texts of his works. Or you could just go for the rather effective film adaptation The Innocents (based on The Turn Of The Screw) which, in turn, inspired the Kate Bush song, The Infant Kiss from the classic album Never Forever

M R James - Website listing his works of classic, understated yet often 'haunting' stories of the supernatural

James Joyce - The Irish literary prankster: theres a good academic Joyce resources site hosted by Ohio State University and there is some useful information at the website for Dublin's James Joyce Centre
