About this audiobook

In short stories, poems, and monumental novels, James Joyce set out to discover the meaning of his nationality, simultaneously celebrating and ridiculing the history of Ireland in the brilliant style that has made him the most towering figure in the literary landscape of the early 20th century. In this audio, Dublin-born Gabriel Byrne brings to life Joyce's short stories from Dubliners, as well as selections from the brilliant A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and the dream-like Chamber Music. Included here are:


• “ A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man”
• “ Strings in the Earth and Air”
• “ The Twilight Turns”
• “ The Sisters”
• “ At That Hour”
• “ An Encounter”
• “ When the Shy Star Goes Forth in Heaven”

• “ My Love Is in a Light Attire”
• “ Who Goes Amid the Greenwood”
