'O, it was out by Donnycarney' Summary
This collection of poems by James Joyce, originally published in 1907, focuses on the experiences of everyday people in Dublin, Ireland. It presents a vibrant portrayal of life in the city's working-class neighborhoods, particularly Donnycarney, a suburb north of Dublin. The poems explore themes of love, loss, joy, and the struggle for survival, infused with Joyce's signature blend of wit, realism, and social commentary. The language is both colloquial and poetic, capturing the rhythms and speech patterns of the people and places he depicts.Book Details
