About this audiobook
Three boys skip school for a day of adventure in Dublin. They cross the river, watch the ships, and walk out to the Pigeon House. Then, in a quiet field, an old man comes up and starts to talk.
James Joyce's story from Dubliners is a sharp, short piece about boyish dreams and one strange meeting. Read by John Young. Eighteen minutes. Perfect for readers who like short, quiet stories about growing up.
