Synopsis
Joyce's bildungsroman--his first novel--traces the development of Stephen Daedalus, Joyce's alter ego. In order to pursue his artistic calling, Stephen, like Joyce, must reject his family, religion, and native land. At the end of the novel, Stephen is about to forsake Dublin for Paris. Joyce, in PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST, was an early practitioner of the stream-of-consciousness technique, by means of which Stephen's interior life and growing self-awareness are rendered directly, so that the reader has access not only to his conscious thoughts but to his unconscious as well.

Publisher's Note
As Joyce describes the sometimes terrifying Dublin upbringing of his alter ego, Stephen Dedalus, he immerses the reader in his emerging consciousness, employing language that evolves from baby talk to hellfire sermon to a triumphant artist's manifesto.
Joyce's semi-autobiographical chronicle of Stephen Dedalus' passage from university student to "independent" artist is at once a richly detailed, amusing, and moving coming-of-age story, a tour de force of style and technique, and a profound examination of the Irish psyche and society.

Industry reviews
"'A Portrait of the Artist as Young Man' is in fact the gestation of a soul."
Book jacket - Richard Ellman 

"Mr. Joyce...presents his people swiftly and vividly, he does not sentimentalise over them, he does not weave convolutions. He is a realist. He gives the thing as it is.
The Egoist - Ezra Pound (07/15/1914)
