Dubliners<br />
James Joyce<br />
Widely acknowledged to be one of the most<br />
important writers of the 20th century, Joyce’s<br />
work continues to intrigue and challenge<br />
readers across the world yet there are many<br />

the perception that his work is too difficult to<br />
read. Dubliners is perhaps the most engaging<br />
and accessible book by Joyce: a collection of<br />
fantastic stories set in the Dublin of a bygone<br />
age. Includes an introduction by John Boyne.<br />
