  • Before you Read Dubliners by James Joyce - Book Summary, Analysis, Review

    Welcome to the CodeX Cantina where our mission is to get more people talking about books! Was there a theme or meaning you wanted us to talk about further? Let us know in the comments below! Today we talk about James Joyce's Dubliners. We spent the last three years going through these stories. Revelations were made. Mistakes were made. That's the journey we take with this masterpiece. We hope to get people excited about this book and consider taking another round with us. There are always new stones to overturn with its many themes of paralysis, stagnation, alienation, home rule, independence, frustration, and more. We used the Richard Ellmann and Don Gifford guides at many points.

Another mind-bender from Jorge Luis Borges! Some consider "Funes The Memorious" (Also Funes, His Memories) his magnum opus.
