About this audiobook
Dubliners - James Joyce's stories of his native homeland - performed by a cast of 15 different actors originating from Ireland. Unabridged.
The fifteen stories that make up this brilliant audio roam over a human landscape that stretches from the bleakest of despair to the most blinding of epiphanies. First published in 1914, the stories are as lucid and accessible as they are memorable poignant.
As you listen to the cast of internationally famous stage and screen actors perform Dubliners, both the spiritually deadening atmosphere that drove Joyce from his homeland and the irresistible emotional pull it always kept on him to the end of his days become heartbreakingly beautiful.
Dubliners is an audio experience that will only grow in richness with each time you listen.

8 ratings1 review
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Every performance is uniquely beautiful with the first by Frank McCourt, and the last by Stephen Rea being extraordinary. I read Dubliners first 40 years ago and many times since including other audio book versions. Nevertheless nothing prepared me for power of this edition.
