Synopsis
A specialist on Modernist writers, retired English professor Doherty offers a dozen essays, each applying what he calls a microtheory on James Joyce's story collection Dubliners. He identifies four games that the narrator plays with both the readers and the characters: castration, contract, semantic, and paralysis. In each case he explains the theory before deploying it.
