About this work

Farrington is an alcoholic scrivener who has been scolded by his boss for not finishing a task on time. But instead of completing the task, Farrington goes out for a beer and receives yet another scolding from his boss. Farrington’s day continues to unravel when he is humiliated at a local pub, and arrives home to find his wife out at chapel and his dinner uncooked. ---------- Also contained in: - Dubliners (opens in a new tab) - Essential James Joyce (opens in a new tab) - Librivox Short Story Collection 019 - Portable James Joyce (opens in a new tab) - Short Story
