Stores where to buy this product
Dubliners is a collection of modernist short stories by Irish writer James Joyce. First published in 1914, the book presents a naturalistic portrait of life in early twentieth-century Dublin, depicting ordinary people and their struggles with poverty, alcoholism, and social decline. The stories are rooted in the rich detail of Dublin life, portraying characters who are often defeated by their circumstances.
The collection includes some of Joyce's most famous works, such as "The Sisters," which explores themes of childhood faith and guilt, and "Araby," a timeless evocation of the inexplicable yearnings of adolescence. In "The Dead," protagonist Gabriel Conroy is gradually brought to a painful epiphany regarding the nature of his existence.
Throughout the collection, Joyce explores overarching themes such as social decline, sexual desire and exploitation, corruption, and personal failure. His vivid portrayals of Dublin life create a brilliantly compelling, unique vision of the world and of human experience.
Dubliners remains a classic work of Irish literature and a powerful exploration of the human condition.
