A boy in Dublin is in love with his friend's older sister. He barely speaks to her. When she mentions a bazaar called Araby, which she cannot attend, he promises to go and bring her something. James Joyce's short story from Dubliners, a quiet look at first love and the gap between a dream and the real thing. Read by Jason Michael Mann in sixteen minutes. Best for older listeners and anyone who remembers a first crush.
