Dubliners
by James Joyce
Stories in Dublin show us truth-tellers, seducers, gossipers, protesters, generous housewives, corrupt politicians, losing priests, amateur theologians, struggling musicians, moon youths, victims of domestic brutality, emotional aunts and poets, patriots, hot or cynical and people who want to get along. An international figure in every sense, Joyce was loyal to his country, saw him without hesitation, and challenged every precedent and religiosity in Irish literature.
