Publisher's Synopsis
In Dubliners, Joyce weaves together the stories of many Dublin residents. Joyce called Dublin "the center of paralysis," and this is evident in the most famous stories from the collection, "Araby" and "The Dead." The first three stories in the collection all concern one boy. In "Araby," this young man plans to attend a bazaar called Araby, where he intends to buy a gift for a girl he likes.
