Description
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce chronicles the intellectual and spiritual development of Stephen Dedalus. This coming-of-age novel traces Stephen’s journey from childhood in Ireland, through his school years, to his burgeoning self-awareness as an artist.
Stephen grapples with questions of identity, nationalism, and the influence of the Catholic Church. He confronts societal and familial expectations, gradually rejecting them in pursuit of artistic freedom. The novel explores themes of rebellion, self-discovery, and the artist’s role in society. Joyce’s semi-autobiographical work is a significant example of modernist literature.
This is the first flexibles edition published in 1934
