このコンテンツについて
This is a story from the Dubliners, Volume 1 collection.
James Joyce's Dubliners is a collection of short stories about the lives of the people of Dublin around the turn of the century. Each story describes a small but significant moment of crisis or revelation in the life of a particular Dubliner, sympathetically but always with stark honesty. Many of the characters are desperate to escape the confines of their humdrum lives, though those that have the opportunity to do so seem unable to take it. This work holds none of the difficulties of Joyce's later novels, such as Ulysses, yet in its way it is just as radical. These stories introduce us to the city which fed Joyce's entire creative output, and to many of the characters who made it such a well of literary inspiration.

This selection from James Joyce's Dubliners traces one long, bad night for Farrington, a clerk in a law firm whose performance is shoddy and incomplete. Raising the ire of his boss, Farrington retreats to the pubs, selling his watch for drinking money. The revelry of the night ends in humiliation, however, when he is rejected by two beautiful young women and loses an arm wrestling competition, and he slinks back home, taking out his anger and frustration on his young son. Jim Norton captures the somber tone with steely composure, and his utilization of Irish accents creates vivid characterization.
