Jess’s Book Club Pick for May: Dubliners by James Joyce

If you are groaning, just wait. Let me begin by saying that if you’ve never gotten around to reading James Joyce, and you’ve had an inkling to do so, Dubliners would be the pick for you.

I am also going with the Dover Thrift Editions once again, simply because Dover works to publish affordable, high-quality books that are in the public domain. Of course, there are many versions of this book available. His masterpiece is his short story “The Dead” which is not to be missed. Also, click here to read an in depth review of Dubliners.
