Summary

James Joyce’ s first novel, hailed as one of the greatest works of the twentieth century, about a young Irishman’ s growth into artistic adulthood A semiautobiographical story mirroring Joyce’ s own coming of age, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man begins when Stephen Dedalus is still a young boy. Living with his family in Dublin, Stephen’ s first brush with the larger world occurs at boarding school, an unhappy time that he is eager to leave behind. Once home, however, life takes on a somber new tone as his father descends into alcoholism and his family’ s finances dwindle. Joyce details young Stephen’ s encounters with the Catholic Church, Irish politics, sexual experimentation, and coming-of-age in the twentieth century.
