Detailed explanation-1: -And just as Picasso’s realist works have not only lasted but are actually preferred by many museum goers to his more difficult-to-appreciate later paintings, Dubliners is the favorite James Joyce book of many readers. The setting of Dubliners is, logically enough, in and around the city of Dublin, Ireland.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dubliners is set in the various boroughs of Dublin, Ireland in the early 20th century. Irish nationalism was at an all-time high, and Dublin was at the center of the country’s industrial and political activity, particularly the push for independence from Great Britain.
Detailed explanation-3: -Writing about his attitude to Ireland, Joyce explained that: My intention was to write a chapter of the moral history of my country and I chose Dublin for the scene because that city seemed to me the centre of paralysis.
