A portrait of the artist as a young man
By James Joyce
Length9h 21m
About this audiobook
Follow the intense, introspective journey of Stephen Dedalus, from his earliest childhood sensations to his turbulent adolescence in late 19th-century Ireland. Through a series of vividly rendered epiphanies, James Joyce traces Stephen’s struggle with the oppressive forces of family, faith, and country.
Haunted by the fiery sermons of Catholic school, the allure of Dublin’s streets, and the stifling pull of Irish nationalism, Stephen must forge his own path. As his artistic consciousness awakens, he grapples with a profound question: how can he find his true voice and create freely in a world determined to chain him?
Told in a groundbreaking lyrical style that evolves with its hero—from the fragmentary impressions of a child to the sophisticated musings of a young intellectual—A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is a masterpiece of modern fiction.
