I've never been able to tackle "Ulysses", but this novella makes me love James Joyce. I think I wrote three papers on "The Dead" at BYU. Those last two pages never get old.

The crown jewel of "Dubliners", 'The Dead' is Joyce's most famous short story, and with reason. Borderline sentimental and satirical, Joyce's language shines through forver and always in its perfection and authority.
