Gracias al titánico esfuerzo de Víctor Pozanco, Editorial Lumen se honra hoy en ofrecer a los lectores españoles una extensísima traducción castellana de Finnegans Wake, la última e imposible novela de James Joyce, publicada en 1939 y considerada, por su indescifrable hermetismo, la obra más oscura y difícil de la literatura inglesa de todos los tiempos. La extremada dificultad de recrear en español castizo el cúmulo incesante de onomatopeyas, retruécanos, ambigüedades y équivocos, neologismos y extranjerismos de todas clases, palabras compuestas de su propia invención y derivaciones idiomáticas acuñadas por él, de que está plagado el caótico laberinto de su prosa, ha sido brillantemente superada por el traductor, que ha llevado a cabo una labor ímproba y arriesgada, sin equivalente en ninguna otra lengua.
