«Dublineses» is the short-story collection by James Joyce, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (215 pages, in Spanish).
Dublineses brings together fifteen stories about the lives of Dublin's middle and working classes at the beginning of the twentieth century. Joyce follows his characters from childhood to maturity and shows paralysis, frustration, the search for identity and human relationships as the book's core themes. It closes with «Los muertos».
This edition dates from 1997, in Alianza Editorial's El Libro de Bolsillo collection (no. 548), with a translation by Guillermo Cabrera-Infante. The work was originally published in 1914.
For readers of classic fiction and Irish literature, and for those who want to discover James Joyce through his stories.
James Augustine Aloysius Joyce was an Irish novelist, poet, and literary critic. He contributed to the modernist movement and is regarded among the most influential and important writers of the 20th century. Joyce's novel Ulysses (1922) is a landmark in which the episodes of Homer's Odyssey are paralleled in a variety of literary styles, particularly stream of consciousness. His other well-known works include the short-story collection Dubliners (1914) and the novels A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916) and Finnegans Wake (1939). His other writings include two books of poetry, a play, correspondence, and occasional journalism.
