James Joyce's debut novel chronicles the journey of Stephen Dedalus, a highly independent and artistic young man. Along the way, he navigates the obstacles of the world, steering clear of the traps set by his dysfunctional family, dictatorial boarding school, and captivating young women. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is a poignant portrayal of childhood and adolescence, with a poetic depiction of life in Ireland over a century ago. It caused a stir upon its 1916 release and is now hailed as one of the most profound literary masterpieces of the 20th century.

This stunning edition of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man from Macmillan Collector's Library includes an afterword by Peter Harness.
