A Little Cloud
»A Little Cloud« is a short story from James Joyce’s Dubliners.
With Dubliners, Joyce aimed to cast his hometown, the experiences of his upbringing, in an unforgiving light. Considering how people, especially men, are portrayed here, it's no wonder that it took many years of constant rejections before the novel was finally published, in the fateful year of 1914 for Europe. The language in which all events are depicted is so vivid, incessantly so close to the very heart of the events, that James Joyce's first prose work has become one of the immortal classics.
JAMES JOYCE [1882-1941], Irish author, is a key figure in modernist literature with works such as Dubliners [1914], A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man [1916], and Ulysses [1922].
