About this product

Product Information

James Joyce has been hailed as one of the great literary rebels of our time. He rebelled against social and literary conventions, against Catholicism, and against Dublin, the city at the center of this magnificent collection of stories. In Dubliners, Joyce paints vivid portraits of the denizens of the city of his birth, from the young boy encountering death in the fist story, "The Sisters," to the middle-aged Gabriel of the haunting final story, "The Dead." This collection is both unflinchingly realistic portrait of "dear dirty Dublin" and, as Joyce himself explained, a window through which his countrymen could get "one good look at themselves."

"InDubliners, Joyce's first attempt to register in language and fictive form the protean complexities of the 'reality of experience,' he learns the paradoxical lesson that only through the most rigorous economy, only by concentrating on the minutest of particulars, can he have any hope of engaging with the immensity of the world."from the Introduction "Joyce renews our apprehension of reality, strengthens our sympathy with our fellow creatures, and leaves us in awe before the mystery of created things." Atlantic Monthly "It is in the prose ofDublinersthat we first hear the authentic rhythms of Joyce the poet…Dublinersis, in a very real sense, the foundation of Joyce's art. In shaping its stories, he developed that mastery of naturalistic detail and symbolic design which is the hallmark of his mature fiction." Robert Scholes and A.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • Dubliners by James Joyce

    James Joyce is a man of immense intrigue to myself. His sense of nonconformity, rebellion, writing style--the shear depth of it, his genius! I believe him to have been some sort of Jesuit mystic. "Ulysses in Dublin" was his choice of title for this book, yet the stories were expanded and the title shortened. Joyce's disciples hail from a wide spectrum--Joseph Campbell, Robert Anton Wilson, Jorge Louis Borges--his magick has spread far. The stories he presents us with here are deceptively straightforward. Complexity is just under the surface. They progress in an order: Childhood, Adolescence, Maturity, and Public Life. There are many green-eyed characters. Each one contains a small epiphany that is not obvious in many cases; in fact, quite subjective. I admit I do not fully understand "The ...
