“The Dead” By James Joyce tells the tale of the early twentieth century upper class society in the Irish city of Dublin. The story tells of the characters entrapment, the tragic lives they lead and hiding behind the conventions of their society. This comes together, not only to tell of the individual tragedy of these people’s lives, but to tell the tragic story of all of Ireland, as its true problems become obscured in so many ways. The story dramatizes a dialogue between Gabriel’s consciousness

“There was no doubt about it: if you wanted to succeed you had to go away. You could do nothing in Dublin.” Little Chandler proclaimed this in the short story “A Little Cloud” and was a common theme within Joyce’s short stories.
