The one by the docks.
Oliver Morris
Hard to pick a favorite, maybe Eveline or A Painful Case. All are masterpieces really.
Sebastian Long
Eveline and A tragic case (was that the name?) are my favorites. The dead, After the race, Two gallants and Little cloud are very good, too.
Brayden Walker
The Dead
Brody Sanchez
Eveline and Clay were my personal favourites.
Parker Cox
How could we ever forget the dead, but i also really love The Boarding House and Eveline is brilliant too
Noah Hughes
Araby is top tier
Jack Wilson
This.
Araby always stood out for me.
Samuel Hughes
>James Joyce
>Dubliners
>Continental Edition
is it better than the original?
Dominic Brown
yeah it comes with a DLC short story
Easton Turner
A painful case
That's the one that got me to talk to the girl I had a crush on.
Leo Butler
Araby, for capturing the shattering insecurity of boyhood. That sense of feeling like a little boy in front of the beautiful, smart older girl. That feeling of failure, and failing because of your own actions, and failing over something incredibly dumb. Just that feeling of being a little boy really, which I still feel from time to time.
Also the one where the dude beats his kids
Jason Evans
THE IRISH LITERARY MASTER RACE STRIKES AGAIN
Noah Perry
Araby and A Painful Case are incel stories. Ivy Day is the best by far...
Christian Howard
Eveline always stuck with me the most for some reason
Connor Brooks
Anyone who doesn't say "A Little Cloud" is a pseud with shit-taste. They really are all masterpieces, though.

I'm Irishman.
The Dubliners is not a very interesting or engaging.
the one really good short story is "a little cloud."
there are far superior Irish writers like William Butler Yeats
Isaiah Nelson

I can't fucking type reeee
Elijah Harris
What I fail to understand is why you all loved Araby so much
I have to admit that the french translation sucks since it called the Araby bazaar a "kermesse" (this is how you call a party in preschool), but even in english, how could you picture it as something exotic and attractive? Don't you need some historical background about Dublin?
Jack Lewis
>I'm Irishman
As if that adds importance or prestige to your opinion.
Ian Martin
never said that
Jaxon Morales
>The Dubliners
Grayson Smith
Why mention it though?
Carter Jackson
It wasn't a point, it was literally just something I felt like putting there.
Carter Lewis
An encounter was masterfully executed, the way he describes the man obsession as a sort of mind loop and how he makes you understand he's a pedophile without ever stating it openly is absolutely incredible for me.
And of course the dead.
Julian Price
>I'm Irishman
Why is it relevant?
Carter Bennett
My favourite story of The Dubliners is Dead.
Caleb Myers

Easton Adams
I always found The Sisters enjoyably spooky and comfy at the same time.
That image of them finding the old priest sitting alone in the confessional laughing to himself quietly always stuck with me.
Kayden Hughes
A Painful Case is by far and away my favorite. I don't believe the first half of The Dead is worth the hype, but those ending pages are deserving of every lick of praise they've received. The rest of the collection is wonderfully written but doesn't stir me nearly as powerfully as those two. I may reread it sometime.
Cooper Rogers
is that the one about a young guy who's recently become a father going to meet his old friend at a bar?
