Consistently Ranked As One Of The Best Novels Ever Written, A Portrait Of The Artist As A Young Man Is Irish Author James Joyce's Most Autobiographical Work. It Tells The Story Of The Intellectual And Philosophical Journey Of Stephen Dedalus, A Young Catholic Man And Later An Artist, As He Questions His Upbringing In The Church And Irish Society. A Coming Of Age Story Told In Joyce's Distinctive Modernist Style, The Novel Was Hugely Controversial Upon Its Publication, But Has Ultimately Found A Place As A Universally Praised Offering From A Master Of English Literature.
