Stephen Hero
by James Joyce
Review this book!
STEPHEN HERO is part of a rejected first draft of PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST--reputedly the part that Nora Joyce saved after her husband threw the manuscript into the fire. This fragment reveals Joyce as a very young writer whose book is a traditional Bildungsroman composed in simple, vivid sentences.
