Description: In Dubliners, completed when Joyce was only twenty-five, he produced a definitive group portrait. I is a book, as Terence Brown suggest in his stimulating Introduction, "rooted in an intensely accurate apprehension of the detail of Dublin life."

Extensive notes to this new edition fill in the rich network of local and historical references. And yet, beyond its brilliant and almost brutal realism, it is also a book full of enigmas, ambiguities, and symbolic resonances. Dubliners remains an undisputed masterpiece, a work that, in Brown's words, "compels attention by the power of its unique vision of the world, its controlling sense of the truths of human experience as its author discerned them in a defeated, colonial city."
