In page Nora Barnacle:

"

Barnacle's and Joyce's relationship was complex. They had different personalities, tastes and cultural interests. Of their first meeting, she recalled: "I mistook him for a Swedish sailor – His electric blue eyes, yachting cap and plimsolls. But when he spoke, well then, I knew him at once for just another Dublin jackeen chatting up a country girl."[2] The numerous erotic letters they exchanged suggest they loved each other passionately.[3] These are also of interest because of Joyce's lifelong dislike of swearing and crude language.[4] Joyce seems to have admired and trusted her, and Barnacle clearly loved Joyce and trusted him enough to agree to leave Ireland with him for continental Europe. In anticipation of the move to Paris, she began studying French.[citation needed]
