A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

James Joyceâ€™s first novel, hailed as one of the greatest works of the twentieth century, about a young Irishmanâ€™s growth into artistic adulthood

A semiautobiographical story mirroring Joyceâ€™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, Stephenâ€™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 familyâ€™s finances dwindle. Joyce details young Stephenâ€™s encounters with the Catholic Church, Irish politics, sexual experimentation, and coming-of-age in the twentieth century.
