PARTISAN REVIEW
In
a one-line paragraph, Joyce refers
to
the love potion-the
simple-and to these words in the
Liebestod.
He combines the theme
with the theme of Pound-who for formal reasons , (or so Joyce would
have it), rejected
Work in Progress.
There was a change. Joyce gives it a few words. He says "Forma–
lisa." An allusion to Pound. An allusion to
Tristan-It
is followed by
the words: Love's death. How simple!
