When taking a picture of your books gains you more cultural capital than actually reading them, the thread.

Its generally better to start with Dubliners. Dubliners is easier and allows you to get a grasp of Irish politics and religion before you start something more substantial, but if you already have an idea about these things you can go ahead with portrait. Make sure you do have some understanding though because it plays a rather large part in the novel. Both are pretty fucking brilliant as well IMO.
