«Dublineses» is the collection of fifteen short stories by James Joyce, published by El País in hardcover (255 pages, in Spanish).
The stories portray the everyday life of the Dublin middle class at the beginning of the 20th century. Joyce captures the routine, frustration and desire to escape of ordinary characters, and ignites each story with small moments of revelation. The whole is an ironic and melancholic look at Irish society of the time.
The work was originally published in 1914. This edition belongs to the Clásicos del Siglo XX collection, with a translation by Guillermo Cabrera Infante.
A work suitable for readers of short fiction and of Irish literature before independence.
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.
