Explanation:

James Joyce's "Dubliners" is a collection of short stories that depicts the life of the ordinary people of the capital of Ireland. Araby refers to an Oriental feast that actually took place in May 1894. In the story, the boy fancies a girl he sees every day. This girl addresses him and asks him whether he is going to the bazaar because she is unable to go. The boy tells her that he is buying something for her but, unfortunately, his uncle forgets about the bazaaar and arrives late. He finally arrives at Araby late at night.
