Published in 1914 after 10 years of argument with publishers over charges of ¿obscenity,¿ these stories were once described by Joyce as ¿a chapter in the moral history of my country.¿ Their collection in one volume offers a unified vision across the Joycean literary landscape, where a claustrophobic and ¿paralyzed¿ Dublin spirals outward to a wide ranging, boundless universe.
