description: In the August of 1936, James Joyce wrote a letter to his grandson Stephen, and in that letter he told an amusing story. It is a fable about the overnight construction of a bridge that the devil builds in exchange for the soul of its first traveler, taking place in Beaugency, France, a small town on the Loire River. Outwitted by Monsieur Alfred Byrne, the Lord Mayor of Beaugency, the Devil must settle for the cat that crosses first.This is the 1990 Canadian edition, illustrated by Roger Blachon.
