Dubliners by James Joyce. Dubliners is a collection of fifteen short stories by James Joyce, first published in 1914. They form a naturalistic depiction of Irish middle class life in and around Dublin in the early years of the 20th century. The stories were written when Irish nationalism was at its peak, and a search for a national identity and purpose was raging; at a crossroads of history and culture, Ireland was jolted by various converging ideas and influences. They centre on Joyce's idea of an epiphany: a moment where a character experiences a life-changing self-understanding or illumination. Many of the characters in Dubliners later appear in minor roles in Joyce's novel Ulysses. The initial stories in the collection are narrated by child protagonists, and as the stories continue, they deal with the lives and concerns of progressively older people. This is in line with Joyce's tripartite division of the collection into childhood, adolescence and maturity.

James Joyce's novel Ulysses is said to be one of the most important works in Modernist literature. It details Leopold Bloom's passage through Dublin on an ordinary day: June 16, 1904. Causing controversy, obscenity trials and heated debates, Ulysses is a pioneering work that brims with puns, parodies, allusions, stream-of-consciousness writing and clever structuring. Modern Library ranked it as number one on its list of the twentieth century's 100 greatest English-language novels and Martin Amis called it one of the greatest novels ever written.

This work of art reflects life in Ireland at the turn of the last century, and by rejecting euphemism, reveals to the Irish their unromantic reality. Each of the 15 stories offers glimpses into the lives of ordinary Dubliners, and collectively they paint a portrait of a nation.

Rare edition with unique illustrations and elegant classic cream paper. Ulysses, one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century, has had a profound influence on modern fiction. In a series of episodes covering the course of a single day, 16 June 1904, the novel traces the movements of Leopold Bloom and Stephen Dedalus through the streets of Dublin. Each episode has its own literary style, and the epic journey of Odysseus is only one of many correspondences that add layers of meaning to the text. Ulysses has been the subject of controversy since copies of the first English edition were burned by the New York Post Office Authorities. Includes unique illustrations

A TAPESTRY OF DUBLIN LIFE James Joyce wrote this collection of fifteen stories in 1914 when he was only twenty-five years old. His first major work, Dubliners provides a fascinating snapshot of early 20th century life in Ireland, bringing his city to the world for the first time. In these depictions of middle-class life, Joyce portrays ordinary, often defeated people where at least one character in each story has an "epiphany" - a unique moment of realization or illumination. The rich detail and unshakeable realism of Dublin life highlights those ordinary citizens who are experiencing social decline, sexual exploitation, corruption, personal failure, domestic abuse, or untimely death. With the devastating potato famine still in living memory, Joyce's unique vision of his native city is one whose inhabitants seem to be paralyzed. In that context, he introduces us to a host of characters including seducers, truants, corrupt politicians, gossips, struggling musicians, sentimental poets, moody adolescents, failing priests, domestic abusers, generous hostesses, rally-drivers, cynical patriots, and people trying to cope and hoping to just get by in life. Many of the characters in these stories later appear in his novel, Ulysses. With these fifteen stories the author reinvents the art of fiction, using unflinching realism in order to convey truths that were simultaneously considered both blasphemous and sacred. The collection was decried by some as obscene, but Joyce described the stories as 'a chapter in the moral history of my country.'

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is the first novel by Irish writer James Joyce. A K nstlerroman in a modernist style, it traces the religious and intellectual awakening of young Stephen Dedalus, a fictional alter ego of Joyce and an allusion to Daedalus, the consummate craftsman of Greek mythology. Stephen questions and rebels against the Catholic and Irish conventions under which he has grown, culminating in his self-exile from Ireland to Europe. The work uses techniques that Joyce developed more fully in Ulysses (1922) and Finnegans Wake (1939).
