Detailed explanation-1: -His mother was dead, his father was hopeless and there was very little to keep him and Nora in Dublin. But it was not just these personal things that drove Joyce into exile. It was also the religious, political and cultural world of Dublin and Ireland that drove him away.
Detailed explanation-2: -James Joyce is known for his experimental use of language and exploration of new literary methods, including interior monologue, use of a complex network of symbolic parallels, and invented words, puns, and allusions in his novels, especially Ulysses (1922) and Finnegans Wake (1939).
Detailed explanation-3: -Influences. Joyce said he had read every line of only three writers: Flaubert, Ben Jonson and Ibsen. He also loved Tolstoy and Shelley. As a young man, Ibsen was his hero; he wrote him a fan letter and studied to read him in the original (Exiles shows a strong influence).
Detailed explanation-4: -The work Joyce is most famous for, Ulysses, was published in 1922. The novel, taking place entirely on June 16, 1904 (now known as Bloomsday), is a dissection of the mind of Leopold Bloom as he wanders about Dublin.
