Lest the title doesn’t clue you up, Dubliners 100 is a story collection conceived (by editor Thomas Morris, perhaps already familiar to some of you as the new force behind Ireland’s foremost literary magazine, The Stinging Fly) as a celebration of the original book’s centenary in the form of reimagined/rewritten/reinterpreted versions of Joyce’s fifteen stories. A rewriting of Joyce and a collection of stories from Ireland’s up-and-coming and already-proven writing talents? For its first outing, Tramp Press has managed both to set itself a mighty challenge and to launch itself triumphantly as a pretty bloody clever impresario.
