A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

English

By (author): James Joyce

Joyce's lyrical, poetic, semi-autobiographical novel in a new annotated edition, with an introduction by Joseph Brooker

The portrayal of Stephen Dedalus's Dublin childhood and youth, his quest for identity through art and his gradual emancipation from the claims of family, religion and Ireland itself, is also an oblique self-portrait of the young James Joyce and a universal testament to the artist's 'eternal imagination'. Both an insight into Joyce's life and childhood, and a unique work of modernist fiction, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is a novel of sexual awakening, religious rebellion and the essential search for voice and meaning that every nascent artist must face in order to fully come into themselves.

About James Joyce

James Joyce was born in Dublin on 2 February 1882 the eldest of ten children in a family which after brief prosperity collapsed into poverty. He was none the less educated at the best Jesuit schools and then at University College Dublin and displayed considerable academic and literary ability. Although he spent most of his adult life outside Ireland Joyce's psychological and fictional universe is firmly rooted in his native Dublin the city which provides the settings and much of the subject matter for all his fiction. He is best known for his landmark novel Ulysses (1922) and its controversial successor Finnegans Wake (1939) as well as the short story collection Dubliners (1914) and the semi-autobiographical novel A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916). James Joyce died in Zürich on 13 January 1941.
