Product Description

James Joyce's Dubliners is a collection of short stories about the lives of the people of Dublin around the turn of the century. Each story describes a small but significant moment of crisis or revelation in the life of a particular Dubliner, sympathetically but always with stark honesty. Many of the characters are desperate to escape the confines of their humdrum lives, though those that have the opportunity to do so seem unable to take it. This work holds none of the difficulties of Joyce's later novels, such as Ulysses, yet in its way it is just as radical. These stories introduce us to the city which fed Joyce's entire creative output, and to many of the characters who made it such a well of literary inspiration.

This and all Jim Norton's renditions of Joyce's work are an absolute must and should receive an award. Listening to the work read and acted by an Irish thespian of genius throws open the door into Joyce's world, and in you walk, never to turn back.

Excellent 3 Cassette recording of Part 1 of James Joyce's collection of short stories'Dubliners' read by well-known Irish actor Jim Norton. Norton brings not just the stories but also the characters to life by acting out the voices. An added bonus is the old background recordings sung by Count John McCormack which lends a very authentic athmosphere to the period. And now that 'Dubliners' has become Dublin's 'One City-One Book' for 2012 these cassettes are an invaluable asset for anyone who likes to read and listen. I have since purchased Part II of the collection and look forward to listening to these readings again and again.
Highly recommended.
