Perhaps the greatest short story collection in the English language, James Joyce s"Dubliners"is a vivid and unflinching portrait of dear dirty Dublin at the turn of the twentieth century. These fifteen stories, including such unforgettable ones as Araby, Grace, and The Dead, delve into the heart of the city of Joyce s birth, capturing the cadences of Dubliners speech and portraying with an almost brute realism their outer and inner lives.
