Sinopse

This is a story from the Dubliners, Volume 2 collection.

In the second half of Joyce's collection of stories about the citizens of Dublin at the turn of the century, the young author deals with themes of adulthood - of loss, parenthood, politics, religion, and - as in the earlier stories - of disappointment. Rich in humor and musical allusion, they contain (in "A Painful Case," for example, and "The Dead"), some of Joyce's most powerful and moving prose. Holding none of the difficulties of Joyce's most powerful and moving prose. Holding none of the difficulties of Joyce's later novels, such as Ulysses, Dubliners is, in its way, just as radical. These stories introduce us to the city which fed Joyce's entire creative output, and to many of the characters who made it such a well of literary inspiration.

Resumo editorial

"Grace" stands as one of James Joyce’s most fascinatingly ambiguous, but no less sublimely written, entries from his peerless 1914 short story collection Dubliners in its depiction of a seemingly contrite alcoholic’s decision, upon the insistence of his four friends after an incident at a local pub, to attend a Jesuit church sermon in order to "set right his accounts".

Jim Norton’s superb performance masterfully captures the biting irony pervasive throughout the work, and his beautifully realized and authentic portrayals of the deflated Mr. Kernan and his humorously misinformed compatriots add resonance to this Irish classic.
