Often considered the greatest collection of short stories in the English language, Dubliners is the vivid portrayal of the people of "dear dirty Dublin" at the beginning of the twentieth century. In fifteen subtly interlinked stories that move from childhood to maturity and a reckoning with death, Joyce provides nuanced accounts of the lives, language, loves, and losses of the inhabitants of his native city. In these moving stories Joyce invents some literary techniques that have forever transformed storytelling and the shape of the novel. A detailed foreword to this authoritative edition highlights the depth of Joyce's understanding of humanity and how Dubliners foreshadows his later experimental writing in Ulysses and Finnegans Wake. This Warbler Classics edition includes an afterword by M. Keith Booker and a detailed biographical timeline.
