Dubliners
James Joyce1914

"Joyce's first major work, written when he was only twenty-five, brought his city to the world for the first time. His stories are rooted in the rich detail of Dublin life, portraying ordinary often defeated lives with unflinching realism. He writes of social decline, sexual desire and exploitation, corruption and personnal failure, yet created a brilliant compelling, unique vision of the world and of human experience. "
