York Notes on "Dubliners" by James Joyce

by A. Norman Jeffares, S. Bushrui

This volume continues the masterly unabridged reading of the short stories. It contains the last five stories from the collection: A Painful Case, Ivy Day in the Committee Room, A Mother, Grace, and perhaps the most welt-known of all the stories (and the longest), The Dead.

Jim Norton has established a special reputation for his recordings of Joyce for Naxos AudioBooks. Released so far are Ulysses, Finnegans Wake, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Dubliners Volume I.

[Stella · Rating 4 out of 5]

Had to read the entirety of the advanced version of this book - every single word front to back - so I’m including it on my Goodreads ✌🏼

Excellent guide to Dubliners. Helps to unlock much of what is going on between the lines and deepens understanding of what is a deceptively complex text.
