内容简介 在线阅读本书
Dubliners was completed in 1905, but a series of British and Irish publishers and printers found it offensive and immoral, and it was suppressed. The book finally came out in London in 1914, just as Joyce's
Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man began to appear in the journal
Egoist under the auspices of Ezra Pound. The first three stories in
Dubliners might be incidents from a draft of
Portrait of the Artist, and many of the characters who figure in
Ulysses have their first appearance here, but this is not a book of interest only because of its relationship to Joyce's life and mature work. It is one of the greatest story collections in the English language--an unflinching, brilliant, often tragic portrait of early twentieth-century Dublin. The book, which begins and ends with a death, moves from "stories of my childhood" through tales of public life. Its larger purpose, Joyce said, was as a moral history of Ireland.

The series was founded in 1917 by the publishers Boni and Liveright and eight years later acquired by Bennett Cerf and Donald Klopfer. It provided the foundation for their next publishing venture, Random House. The Modern Library has been a staple of the American book trade, providing readers with affordable hardbound editions of important works of literature and thought. For the Modern Library's seventy-fifth anniversary, Random House redesigned the series, restoring as its emblem the running torch-bearer created by Lucian Bernhard in 1925 and refurbishing jackets, bindings, and type, as well as inaugurating a new program of selecting titles. The Modern Library continues to provide the world's best books, at the best prices.

--This text refers to the Audio Cassette edition. From AudioFile Jim Norton continues his interpretation of James Joyce''s classic volume of short stories, originally published in 1914. Norton give us lively characterizations between narration delivered with a solemn detachment. I''m not sure this approach dovetails the author''s narrative voice. Whether it does or not, it isn''t particularly interesting. Y.R. © AudioFile 2001, Portland, Maine--

Philadelphia Inquirer ". . . the stories have a certain beauty, especially in a new recording from Caedmon Audio. Dubliners will endure not only because it''s Joyce, but also because of the people performing it. The list of narrators reads like an Irish who''s-who . . . It''s worth every minute."
