A letter for Nora


Recommended Posts

“My sweet little whorish Nora I did as you told me, you dirty little girl, and pulled myself off twice when I read your letter. I am delighted to see that you do like being fucked arseways. Yes, now I can remember that night when I fucked you for so long backwards. It was the dirtiest fucking I ever gave you, darling. My prick was stuck in you for hours, fucking in and out under your upturned rump. I felt your fat sweaty buttocks under my belly and saw your flushed face and mad eyes. At every fuck I gave you your shameless tongue came bursting out through your lips and if a gave you a bigger stronger fuck than usual, fat dirty farts came spluttering out of your backside. You had an arse full of farts that night, darling, and I fucked them out of you, big fat fellows, long windy ones, quick little merry cracks and a lot of tiny little naughty farties ending in a long gush from your hole. It is wonderful to fuck a farting woman when every fuck drives one out of her. I think I would know Nora’s fart anywhere. I think I could pick hers out in a roomful of farting women. It is a rather girlish noise not like the wet windy fart which I imagine fat wives have. It is sudden and dry and dirty like what a bold girl would let off in fun in a school dormitory at night. I hope Nora will let off no end of her farts in my face so that I may know their smell also.

You say when I go back you will suck me off and you want me to lick your cunt, you little depraved blackguard. I hope you will surprise me some time when I am asleep dressed, steal over to me with a whore’s glow in your slumberous eyes, gently undo button after button in the fly of my trousers and gently take out your lover’s fat mickey, lap it up in your moist mouth and suck away at it till it gets fatter and stiffer and comes off in your mouth. Sometimes too I shall surprise you asleep, lift up your skirts and open your drawers gently, then lie down gently by you and begin to lick lazily round your bush. You will begin to stir uneasily then I will lick the lips of my darling’s cunt. You will begin to groan and grunt and sigh and fart with lust in your sleep. Then I will lick up faster and faster like a ravenous dog until your cunt is a mass of slime and your body wriggling wildly.

Goodnight, my little farting Nora, my dirty little fuckbird! There is one lovely word, darling, you have underlined to make me pull myself off better. Write me more about that and yourself, sweetly, dirtier, dirtier.”

― James Joyce, Selected Letters

Are you sure that quote is of James Joyce? To me, it looks like a short story in a cheap porn magazine, written by a guy in his 40´s who lives alone in a lousy flat full of crap, drinks beer from can, eats pizza or burgers, seldom goes out, writes these stories in the darkness of the night, sells them for a couple of bucks and has very little experience of girls.

The "letter for Nora" is very very far from RLC Nora´s character. She could take it as an insult but I guess she has become hardened in this business and does not care.

quel poète!!! c'est si beau, et le tout en alexandrins!!!! vraiment touchant!!!!

what poet !!! it's so beautiful, and while Alexandrian !!!! really touching !!!! :no: :no:

Tu as raison... Texte affligeant. Pauvreté du langage, médiocrité du style, récit inutile. On se demande l'intérêt qu'il y a à écrire de telles inepties.

U'r right... Text distressing. Poverty of language, mediocrity of style, useless story. One wonders the interest writing such a nonsense.

From James Joyce to Nora Barnacle in 1909.

“My sweet little whorish Nora I did as you told me, you dirty little girl, and pulled myself off twice when I read your letter. I am delighted to see that you do like being fucked arseways.

Yes, I have to believe now that James Joyce wrote this letter and some others to Nora Barnacle in 1909. Having learned this and on the other hand having read Ulysses (though it was very difficult), I have now lost a big part of my respect to him. Well, at the time of those letters Joyce was only 27 years old and not yet known in the literary circles - his breakthrough "Dubliners" was published in 1914, Ulysses in 1922. I think he got rid of such dirty teen age boys´language when he became a real author.

Would your wife/girl friend adore you if you wrote such a letter to her?

I always preferred Henry Miller to Joyce, anyway. He wasn't just more honest about sex (on occasion) but he was more honest about the human condition.
