A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (King's Classics) - Paperback
$16.15
by James Joyce (Author)
The novel traces the religious and intellectual awakening of young Stephen Dedalus, a fictional alter ego of Joyce and an allusion to Daedalus, the consummate craftsman of Greek mythology. Stephen questions and rebels against the Catholic and Irish conventions under which he has grown, culminating in his self-exile from Ireland to Europe.
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man began life in 1904 as Stephen Hero--a projected 63-chapter autobiographical novel in a realistic style. After 25 chapters, Joyce abandoned Stephen Hero in 1907 and set to reworking its themes and protagonist into a condensed five-chapter novel, dispensing with strict realism and making extensive use of free indirect speech that allows the reader to peer into Stephen's developing consciousness. The publication of the novel and the short story collection Dubliners (1914) earned Joyce a place at the forefront of literary modernism.
