Riassunto:

Introduction and Notes by Laurence Davies, Dartmouth College, New Hampshire. Living overseas but writing, always, about his native city, Joyce made Dublin unforgettable. The stories in Dubliners show us truants, seducers, gossips, rally-drivers, generous hostesses, corrupt politicians, failing priests, amateur theologians, struggling musicians, moony adolescents, victims of domestic brutishness, sentimental aunts and poets, patriots earnest or cynical, and people striving to get by. In every sense an international figure, Joyce was faithful to his own country by seeing it unflinchingly and challenging every precedent and piety in Irish literature.

L'autore: James Joyce (1882-1941) was an Irish novelist and playwright, and is considered one of the most influential writers of the 20th century. His short story collection, Dubliners, and his novels A Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man, Ulysses and Finnegans Wake are unique.
