Centering on the concept of epiphany, Irish writer James Joyce’s short-story collection Dubliners (1914) deals with contemporaneous Irish political and social issues. It is structured to mimic a human life, beginning with stories about childhood and progressing to stories that deal with adult concerns and finally old age and death.

In “The Sisters,” an unnamed young boy waits for Father Flynn, a local priest, to die after the man suffers his third stroke. The boy and the priest have become friends, and the boy is surprised to hear from his aunt and uncle’s annoying friend that the priest is considered peculiar. After Father Flynn’s death, the boy visits the priest’s sisters, who wonder what they will do with their lives now that they no longer have to care for him.
