James Joyce - A Little Cloud (in: Dubliners) A Little Cloud has not generated significant critical debate‚ despite Warren Beck’s unorthodox interpretation of the denouement in 1969. Chandler’s relationship with his son – not with his wife Annie or journalist/ friend Gallaher – could be the crucial‚ epiphanal element of the story - Joyce portraying a father who is just beginning to ‘learn [...] what the heart is and what it feels’ (A Portrait 252)‚ a man whose conscience is awakened‚ despite his
