{"product_id":"ivy-day-in-the-committee-room","title":"Ivy Day in the Committee Room","description":"Ivy Day in the Committee Room by James Joyce is a short story from Dubliners that offers a subtle critique of Irish politics and national identity. Set in a dimly lit committee room during an election campaign, the story follows a group of political canvassers as they engage in idle talk, drink stout, and reflect on their disillusionment with contemporary politics. As they commemorate Ivy Day—the anniversary of nationalist leader Charles Stewart Parnell’s death—the story highlights themes of political paralysis, lost ideals, and the fading hope for true leadership. Joyce masterfully captures the stagnation and cynicism that defined early 20th-century Ireland.","brand":"Delhi Open books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54549564719383,"sku":"9789370487901","price":103.95,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6918\/8119\/files\/3535658.webp?v=1785152442","url":"https:\/\/payment.letskitaboo.com\/products\/ivy-day-in-the-committee-room","provider":"Kitaboo One eStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
