Hardcover. Dubliners' Dozen is an exploration of those narrative devices that make James Joyce's Dubliners a writerly rather than a readerly text. In place of a single comprehensive theory that integrates all of the stories, Dubliners' Dozen trades entirely in 'micro-theories'- a term for specific fragments of larger theoretical structures. Num Pages: 181 pages. BIC Classification: DSR. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 244 x 167 x 15. Weight in Grams: 449.
