Dubliners

Více o knize

Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century Dublin, this collection of fifteen short stories explores the complexities of Irish middle-class life during a time of heightened nationalism. Joyce delves into themes of paralysis and epiphany, illustrating characters' moments of profound self-discovery. The stories are categorized into stages of life—childhood, adolescence, maturity, and public life—each narrated in the third person. Joyce's characters, initially introduced here, later reappear in his renowned work, Ulysses, enriching the tapestry of Dublin's cultural narrative.
