James Joyce's first novel follows the life of Stephen Dedalus, an
artistic and fiercely individual young man. Along the way, Stephen
learns to negotiate the 'snares of the world', to avoid the
pitfalls of his dysfunctional family, his terrifying and repressive
boarding school, and the various beautiful young ladies who capture
his heart. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is an
unforgettable depiction of childhood and adolescence, as well as a
lyrical evocation of life in Ireland over a century ago. It shocked
readers on its publication in 1916 and it is now regarded as one of
the most significant literary works of the twentieth century. This
beautiful Macmillan Collector's Library edition of A Portrait of
the Artist as a Young Man features an afterword by Peter Harness.
Designed to appeal to the booklover, the Macmillan Collector's
Library is a series of beautiful gift editions of much loved
classic titles. Macmillan Collector's Library are books to love and
treasure.
