James Joyce wrote these stories with a tendency towards close detail in order to make the settings more realistic. Each story shows an epiphany, or a life changing moment or illuminating moment, that changes their viewpoint. Joyce brings his characters to life using their emotions without actually using many physical descriptions. Although it is set in Ireland, the people are easy to relate to when placed in any middle-income neighborhood. In 1914 he was finally able to get it published.ĭubliners are written simply, with dialogue that is easy to follow. Luckily, James Joyce managed to save one copy that he tricked out of them. Even though he paid them, they still burned it. Another partially printed it, then refused to return his copy without first being paid. One agreed to publish it if she would remove the story, Two Gallants.
James Joyce submitted the book eighteen times to fifteen different publishers. Getting the book published was a story into itself.
