Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
This Penguin Classic is performed by Andrew Scott, star of Sherlock, Fleabag, and Black Mirror, also known for his on-stage roles in Present Laughter and Hamlet. This definitive recording includes an introduction by Terence Brown.
Joyce's first major work, written when he was only twenty-five, brought his city to the world for the first time. His stories are rooted in the rich detail of Dublin life, portraying ordinary, often defeated lives with unflinching realism. He writes of social decline, sexual desire and exploitation, corruption and personal failure, yet creates a brilliantly compelling, unique vision of the world and of human experience.
Critic Reviews
"Scott's intonation and pacing made the book really easy to follow, and the fact that every chapter is a full story kept me engaged for much longer than if I was reading it on the page." (i News)

Engaging and poignant stories from early 19th century Ireland
Outstanding narration from Andrew Scott. I am sure I will find my way back to these stories again and again

Andrew Scott!
Andrew Scott’s narration is superb here, especially on James Joyce’s magnum opus “The Dead”. Get him to do Ulysses!

Unimpressed
I know it’s supposed to be one of the great pieces of literature but I read many books much more enjoyable
