A beautiful Everymans Library Contemporary Classics hardcover edition of James Joyces first and still most widely read novel, with an introduction by Richard Brown.
In A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Joyce makes a strange peace with the traditional narrative of a young mans self-discovery by respecting its substance while exploding its form, thereby inaugurating a literary revolution.
Published in 1916 when Joyce was already at work on Ulysses, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is exactly what its title says and much more. In an exuberantly inventive masterpiece of subjectivity, Joyce portrays his alter ego, Stephen Dedalus, growing up in Dublin and struggling through religious and sexual guilt toward an aesthetic awakening. In part a vivid picture of Joyces own youthful evolution into one of the twentieth centurys greatest writers, it is also a moment in the intellectual history of an age.
Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket. Contemporary Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author's life and times.
