James Joyces first published book, which he wrote when he was still in his twenties, Dubliners is far removed from the bold experimentalism of his later work, but is essential for understanding the authors development as a writer, and endures as a masterly example of the short-story form. Although ranging considerably in tone, mood and milieu, the fifteen short stories included in this collection all centre around the city of Dublin and its inhabitants at the beginning of the twentieth-century. From the unsettling adventure of two truant schoolboys to the crafty schemes of two con-men, from a young womans refusal to abandon Ireland and elope with a sailor to a mans moment of clarity during an annual dance party, these stories offer a moving portrait of an entire world and era which has all but disappeared.

His writing is not about something; it is that something itself. -- Samuel Beckett Its deep power abides in the inextricability of Joyces masterly control of language and the breadth of his vision. -- Eimear McBride

Born in Dublin, James Joyce (18821941) spent most of his life abroad, living in Trieste, Paris and Zurich. His writings, however, mainly centre on Dublin most famously Ulysses, Dubliners and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. He pioneered and perfected avant-garde prose techniques that saw him rise to the rank of one of Europes foremost Modernists.
