Whether you are a long-time admirer of American literature or new to Bierce's work, this adaptation promises an immersive and thought-provoking experience.Mostra libro
"Cosham reads with a gentle accent that enhances Joyce's Dublin... Recommended for most collections." -- Library Journal James Joyce, 1882-1941, is one of the world's greatest writers. Dubliners, his first and most accessible fiction, was started in in 1904 and completed in 1905. Because it was considered explicit and critical of the Church, it was censored in Ireland. Two publishers broke contracts rather than publish it. When, in 1912, Joyce returned to Dublin to buy back his work, a printer destroyed the sheets and broke up the type. It was not published until 1914.Mostra libro
