***
Prvá významná publikácia Jamesa Joyca, ktorú napísal vo veku dvadsaťpäť rokov, oboznamuje svet o jeho meste po prvýkrát.

Ambiciózna matka, zaľúbený chlapec, osamelý starec, cynický intelektuál a dievča snívajúce o živote v inej zemi sú len zlomok Joycových Dublinčanov. V týchto realistických príbehoch odhaľuje túžby, obavy a sklamania postáv. Taktiež fascinujúco detailne zobrazuje Dublin na prelome storočí. Výber ôsmich príbehov z Dublinčanov zahŕňa Eveline, Araby a dvojdielnu adaptáciu Joycovej novely Mŕtvy.
