Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

Joyce, James

WITH INTRODUCTIONS BY DR DIETER FUCHS AND JOSEPH O'CONNORAgainst the backdrop of nineteenth century Dublin, a boy becomes a man- his mind testing its powers, obsessions taking hold and loosening again, the bonds of family, tradition, nation and religion transforming from supports into shackles; until the young man devotes himself to the celebration of beauty, and reaches for independence and the life of an artist.
