Considered the first great Irish writer of realist fiction, the author has inspired literary giants like James Joyce. Celibates unfolds the lives of three characters—Mildred Lawson, John Norton, and Agnes Lahens—who share a singular devotion to themselves, leaving little room for empathy towards others. This novel paints a striking portrait of our own self-absorbed society, resonating deeply with contemporary readers. (Introduction by James Carson)Copyright Culture and Heritage classics 社会科学 科学
