After a scandal breaks out involving a famous Irish Nationalist
politician, Stephen Dedalus finds his family being torn apart over
their differing opinions of the matter. Shaken by all the fighting
and animosity, Stephen begins to wonder where he can place his
faith. Questioning the Irish and Catholic ideology that he was
raised on, Stephen begins to rebel against expectations as he
departs for college. While he excels in his studies, Stephen
struggles to conform to the social norms of his college, leading
him on a self-destructive path of unwise behavior. Attempting to
navigate his new home life, conflicting beliefs, and his own
coming-of-age, Stephen searches for his identity and struggles to
belong. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce is a
semi-autobiographical tale centered around finding one's identity,
both separate from and amid societal expectations. First published
in 1916, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man required a
grueling writing and publication process, in which Joyce nearly
destroyed the original draft of the novel in a fit of frustration.
Written in a modernist style, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young
Man depicts the timeless and relatable struggle of an intellectual
and religious awakening. With themes of identity, religion, and
family, Joyce’s debut novel continues to capture the minds and
hearts of modern audiences, and has inspired both film and stage
adaptations. This edition of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young
Man by James Joyce now features a new, eye-catching cover design
and is printed in a font that is both modern and readable. With
these accommodations, this edition of A Portrait of the Artist as a
Young Man crafts an accessible and pleasant reading experience for
modern audiences while restoring the original drama and emotional
mastery of James Joyce’s literature.
