    Nov 16 2025
    Dubliners is a captivating collection of 15 short stories by James Joyce, first published in 1914. These tales offer a vivid and naturalistic portrayal of Irish middle-class life in Dublin during the early 20th century. Written against the backdrop of a surging Irish nationalism and a quest for national identity, the stories illuminate a time of cultural intersection and transformation. Central to Joyces narrative is the concept of epiphany—a moment when characters attain self-discovery or profound insight. Many figures in Dubliners reappear in minor roles in Joyces later masterpiece, Ulysses. The collection unfolds through the eyes of child protagonists in its initial stories, gradually exploring the lives and challenges of increasingly older characters. This progression mirrors Joyces thematic division into childhood, adolescence, and maturity. (Summary from Wikipedia)
