More About James Joyce's Dubliners
There was no doubt about it: if you wanted to succeed you had to go away. You could do nothing in Dublin. James Joyce, Dubliners // School and home seem to recede from us and their influences upon us seemed to wane. James Joyce, Dubliners // One by one they were all becoming shades. Better pass boldly into that other world, in the full glory of some passion, than fade and wither dismally with age. James Joyce, Dubliners //
I suppose I've always intended to read Joyce; it's terribly daunting but seems inevitable, too, that I must follow the man all the way through to Finnegans Wake. I have a copy. Untouched. Another remnant of the days when I thought I was on Earth to prove some kind of a point.But I'm still awfully curious, and this year I finally dipped... Why do we wish to live this life; life, which at times seem to accompany the vague impressions we have long since been comfortable to carry along; the ideas, the choices, which have become a second nature to us. How many times do we stop and think about them? Particularly, as readers, as the ones who have been challenged, and hence... My displeasure with Dubliners, and my general distaste for James Joyce, is a long-standing fact. I won't waste space here by trash-talking "The Dead" like I usually do. The only story I really like in this collection is "Eveline."I know, I'm the worst English major ever.
