A PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST AS A YOUNG MAN

DUBLINERS: SELECTED STORIES

A classic collection of short stories from the Irish writer.

FINNEGANS WAKE

Who is Humphrey Chimpden Earwicker? And what did he get up to in Phoenix Park? And what did Anna Livia Plurabelle have to say about it? In the rich night time and the language of dreams, here are history, anecdote, myth, folk tale and, above all, a wondrous sense of humour, coloured by a clear sense of humanity.

ULYSSES

A day in the life of the author's city, Dublin, becomes a wild and joyous celebration of the love of a man for his home town. Leopold Bloom and Stephen Dedalus, come together in a hilarious scene in a brothel. It is as if Stephen takes the place of the son who died when Bloom was a young man and the story becomes a celebration of life itself.
