PART 1 In “The Dead,” Gabriel Conroy and his wife travel to attend a party where Conroy is set to give a short speech. He has awkward and hostile interactions at the party, but the speech goes well. Later, his wife reveals that she had a lover before him; he questions his existence and the value of his life.

Centering on the concept of epiphany, Irish writer James Joyce’s short-story collection Dubliners (1914) deals with contemporaneous Irish political and social issues. It is structured to mimic a human life, beginning with stories about childhood and progressing to stories that deal with adult concerns and finally old age and death.
