Araby—a Classic Short Story by James Joyce
from LitReading - Classic Short Stories
James Joyce’s “Araby” is ranked among the pantheon of greatest short stories ever written. In this timeless coming of age tale an adolescent boy, blinded by a hormonal fog, falls for a neighbor girl. Now considered one of the classics of literature, the 1914 collection of short stories, Dubliners, of which “Araby” was an early part was an initial failure selling less than 400 copies. Of those almost a third were purchased Joyce himself. We are so honored to have been featured by Apple Podcasts as a great source for summer stories.
