Résumé

What if all that you knew was a lie? A version of the truth prescribed and injected to you without consultation, conversation or countability?

When Stephen Dedalus finds fault with religion and reality in 19th-century Ireland, he quickly decides to forge his own fate.

But society is less than kind to those who reject their rightful futures. And Stephen will soon learn the price he has to pay if he is to reclaim a sense of soul and conscience.

Weaving a powerful and poignant tale of passion and perseverance, ‘A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man’ is perfect for fans of Michelle Gallen, Niall Williams, and Frances Macken.

Born in Ireland, James Joyce (1882-1941) was a trailblazing and experimental novelist and poet. He is celebrated as one of the most influential and important writers of the 20th century with his landmark novel ‘Ulysses’, which parallels Homer’s ‘Odyssey’, whilst his other works include ‘Dubliners’, ‘A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man’, and ‘Finnegans Wake’.

James Joyce (auteur)

James Joyce est né le 2 février 1882 à Rathgar, dans la banlieue de Dublin. Dès 1897, il commence à écrire. Il entre à University College en 1898, et c'est en 1900 qu'il fait un véritable début littéraire, avec un article sur Ibsen. En 1920, James Joyce s'installe à Paris sur les conseils d'Ezra Pound. Il fait la connaissance d'Adrienne Monnier, de Sylvia Beach, qui publie Ulysse en 1922, de Valery Larbaud, qui le présente au Tout-Paris littéraire. En 1940, il se réfugie à Zurich, où il meurt le 13 janvier 1941.
