Dubliners is my favourite Joyce! Can’t wait for The Dead…I watch the movie every December.
“If adventures will not befall a young lady in her own village, she must seek them abroad.”
― Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey
That’s a great tradition!
Reading has been a solitary activity and experience for me for so long-finding your channel has been such a breath of fresh air. I feel like I’m not reading/enjoying these stories alone anymore. Thanks guys! 🙏
Thanks for the kind words!
I bought Dubliners - I need to get it on the schedule somewhere for 2023. I have enjoyed every one you’ve covered that I’ve seen here on the channel so far - I’ll have to go back and weigh in on each one after I read them!

I think it's a story about overcoming fear (paralysis) through the loss of innocense
Been a while since I read Dubliners, but this was one of the stories I vividly remember.
Dat ending…
Thanks for the content and insights. My interpretation of the old man at the end of story is that he’s a hypocrite-as the kid tells us too-and Dubliners at the time could’ve saved Parnell but couldn’t because the church was so powerful when he was accused of adultery. Joyce was pretty pissed about the dubliners’ “hypocrisy” and makes it clear in Cyclops episode in Ulysses (the unnamed narrator and Citizen)-this is how I was able to interpret this.
Thanks for sharing!
Oh absolutely! I get a lot of value out of your content guys. I made it through The Sound and the Fury and Absalom, Absalom totally unscathed because of your guys’ content. So THANK YOU 🙏
Great Job, as always.

Modern take would be the old man would be asking the kids if they wanted some candy 😂
