Dubliners: James Joyce

The last story in this book, The Dead, is one of the most powerful evocations of human loss and longing that the English language possesses; and the other stories are as beautifully turned and as greatly admired. All demonstrate that James Joyce was not only modernism`s chief innovator, but also one of its most intimate and poetic writers. In this new edition the text has been revised in line with Joyce`s wishes, and the original versions of The Sisters, Eveline and After the Race have been made available for the first time.
