Neste conto aqui traduzido, 'Os Mortos', James Joyce relata-nos os acontecimentos que decorrem num evento social anual organizado pelas tias de Gabriel Conroy na época de Natal. No evento figuram os mais diversos convidados, amigos e familiares, numa caracterização da sociedade irlandesa do princÃpio do século XX.
No decorrer cronológico de uma só noite, em ambiente de festa com danças e música e uma mesa de jantar farta, a história desenrola-se por uma via nostálgica, tratando a morte de forma literal e metafórica, e colocando as personagens no limbo das suas memórias de um passado glorioso e de um presente em declÃnio que atinge a consciência das personagens por via do simbolismo.
Tendo o inverno de Dublin como pano de fundo, Joyce guia-nos gradualmente até à epifania noturna de Gabriel sobre a sua vida e casamento com Gretta que, provocada pelo ouvir de uma velha canção, cai à recordação de um antigo amor trágico, o que leva Gabriel a uma reflexão sobre os mortos que fazem sombra dos vivos.
