is one of the most influential novels of the twentieth century. It was not easy to find a publisher in America willing to take it on, and when Jane Jeap and Margaret Anderson started printing extracts from the book in their literary magazine The Little Review in 1918, they were arrested and charged with publishing obscenity. They were fined $100, and even The New York Times expressed satisfaction with their conviction.

Dubliners was first published in 1914. The book depicts middle-class Catholic life in Dublin at the beginning of the twentieth century.
Elegir leer este libro como motivo de mi viaje a Dublín creo que ha sido la mejor idea que he podido tener. Haber paseado por muchas de las calles que se mencionan en él le ha dado un mayor sentimiento de realidad que me ha ayudado a conectar mejor. Además, considero que la historia de Irlanda es increíblemente apasionante, y junto con lo que aprendí en el viaje, creo que me he llevado una lectura completa de sus problemas sociales, estructurales, de su gente... Todos los "cuentos" aportan algo, y Dublín se construía cada vez más nítida según seguía leyendo. A pesar de ello, quiero destacar "Eveline", "Un caso lamentable" y "Los muertos", mis favoritos.
