Overview
El primer libro en prosa de James Joyce, quince relatos maestros en los que empezó a delinear su mitología personal acerca de la ciudad de Dublín
Obra de juventud escrita con increíble madurez, Dublineses ofrece quince relatos sobre la ciudad natal de James Joyce, agrupados en torno a la infancia, la adolescencia, la madurez y la esfera pública. Desde el despertar erótico de un jovencito hasta la revelación de un marido al final de una fiesta, pasando por las dudas de una muchacha antes de escapar con un marinero, el conjunto captura momentos decisivos en la vida de una sociedad que se debate con su hipocresía y su estancamiento. La lente realista de Joyce, sin embargo, también permite vislumbrar el camino de Dublín hacia la modernidad y, entretanto, crear una nueva literatura urbana.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
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. Dubliners is Joyce at his most accessible and most profound, and this edition is the definitive text, authorized by the Joyce estate and collated from all known proofs, manuscripts, and impressions to reflect the author’s original wishes.
