Joyces first major work, written when he was only twenty-five, brought his city to the world for the first time.An ambitious mother, a boy in love, a lonely older man, a cynical intellectual and a girl who dreams of a life in another country are just a few of Joyces Dubliners. In these realistic tales, Joyce reveals the hopes, fears and disappointments of his characters. He also shows us turn-of-the-century Dublin in fascinating detail. This selection of eight stories from "Dubliners" includes "Eveline, Araby" and a two-part adaptation of Joyces novella, "The Dead".
