Grace by James Joyce

In Grace, James Joyce offers a sharp and contemplative exploration of morality, redemption, and social hypocrisy. The story follows Tom Kernan, a Dublin businessman whose excessive drinking leads to an embarrassing accident. As his friends stage an intervention, urging him toward spiritual renewal, the narrative unfolds with Joyce’s signature wit and keen observation of human nature.

Part of Dubliners, Grace is a masterful study of religious influence, personal failings, and the tension between appearance and sincerity. Experience this classic work in an immersive audio adaptation, brought to you by Public Domain Stories.
