About this ebook
Complete and unabridged, with 60 full-page plates by Spencer Gore, John Lavery and John Constable. Fifteen stories of Dublin lives that stop short of the moment when something might change, ending with the snow falling over Ireland in The Dead. Joyce spent nine years getting the book into print: one publisher set the type and then burned the sheets rather than risk the references to real shops and a dead king. Nothing in it is invented much. Sixty plates of city life and quiet interiors by painters including Walter Osborne and John Lavery, spanning 1786 to 1929, run alongside stories of Dublin's own stillness.
