Questa famosa raccolta di racconti vuole offrire uno spaccato dell’esperienza dublinese di Joyce. I quindici racconti restano sospesi nella nebbia della città, cogliendo delle istantanee nella vita dei suoi personaggi, offerte così, senza un inizio o una fine nel senso stretto della parola. Dal racconto più lungo, I morti, è stato tratto un film.

"Después de la Carrera" puede entenderse superficialmente como la historia de un grupo de mozalbetes de distintas nacionalidades que viven una vida disipada, compitiendo en carreras de autos y jugando a las cartas. Sin embargo, la historia es un simbolismo sobre distintas naciones y su rol en la carrera politica que vivia el mundo en los tiempos de Joyce, muy similar a la nuestra, actual.

The story traces the intellectual and religio-philosophical awakening of young Stephen Dedalus as he begins to question and rebel against the Catholic and Irish conventions he has been brought up in. He finally leaves for Paris to pursue his calling as an artist. The work pioneers some of Joyce's modernist techniques that would later come to fruition in Ulysses and Finnegan's Wake.

Efemerides en el Comite; es la historia de un partido poltico en medio de una campana electoral.

This is a story from the Dubliners, Volume 2 collection.

These vivid, tightly focused observations about the life of Dublin's poorer classes originally made publishers uneasy: the stories contain unconventional themes and coarse language, and they mention actual people and places. Today, however, the stories are admired. They are considered to be masterful representations of Dublin done with economy and grace - representations, as Joyce himself once explained, of a chapter in the moral history of Ireland that give the Irish a good look at themselves.

Ulysses is regarded by many as the single most important novel of the 20th century. It tells the story of one day in Dublin, 16 June 1904, largely through the eyes of Stephen Dedalus (Joyce's alter ego from Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man) and Leopold Bloom, an advertising salesman. Both begin a normal day, and both set off on a journey around the streets of Dublin, which eventually brings them into contact with one another.

James Joyce was an Irish novelist and poet. His short story "The Dead", the concluding story in Dubliners, often considered as one of the best works of short fiction, concerns a Christmas-time gathering in Dublin. With a beautiful use of language and the epiphany common to all the stories in Dubliners, this book will remain in your thoughts long after the final emotional passages.

An eclectic selection of short story classics by great writers of latter day such as Jack London, O' Henry, M.R. James, G.K. Chesterton, James Joyce and Anton Chekhov.

Finn's Hotel: Ein Ort, wo Menschen kommen und gehen. Mythen, Erzählungen und Kuriositäten aus der irischen Geschichte, von der Ankunft St. Patricks vor tausenden von Jahren bis in Joyce' Zeit. Geschichten von Trinkerei, Religion und leidenschaftlicher Keuschheit, brillant und beredt geschrieben und geprägt von Joyce' unkonventionellem Blick und Humor. Die kleinen Fabeln und Epen komponierte Joyce 1923, ein halbes Jahr nach seinem Hauptwerk "Ulysses" und bevor er sich an die Arbeit zu "Finnegan's Wake" machte. Kleine Geschichten, die zu einer Sensation werden sollten, denn erst Jahrzehnte später wurden sie aus dem Nachlass publiziert und 2013 erstmals auf Englisch veröffentlicht.

Often hailed as the finest short story ever written in the English language, James Joyce's "The Dead" tells the story of a young woman who hears a familiar song unexpectedly at a Christmas party. The melody brings memories of a long-dead lover flooding back to her. Joyce's description of the multi-layered situation, characters, and atmosphere are unsurpassed. The reader is drawn into the stifling world of Dublin society with its aspirations, pretensions, repressed morals, and furtively enjoyed freedoms. Beautiful and evocative.
