Book Review #36 (2015 Challenge), Dubliners

The book I am reviewing is: The Dubliners (read in September 2015)


This was in the category: A Book More Than 100 years old

This was really a book of short stories.  It is an oral history of some of the people in Dublin Ireland.

There isn't really much to say about this book.  Except I didn't like it at all.  It was hard to read, and all of the stories ended without being "wrapped up" which I found annoying.  The stories were not interesting at all.  I am sure it is all me - I just don't think that James Joyce is for me.  I cannot recommend it, because I truly did not like it at all.  But someone who loves James Joyce might want to give it a try.  It isn't a very big book, so it wouldn't take long to tackle.

Stars: 1 1/2
