Abstract

James Stephens y James Joyce han sido mencionados como referentes de la aclamada ópera prima de Caitriona Lally, Eggshells (2015). El presente artículo pretende estudiar esta nueva y brillante plasmación de la ciudad de Dublín a través de los ojos de Vivian (supuestamente cambiada por las hadas al nacer), cuyas cavilaciones creativas joyceanas en torno al lenguaje le sirven para retratar el Dublín contemporáneo, a la vez que proyectar imaginativamente otros mundos en los que se pueda sentir más a gusto.
