When Joyce was a child he moved to four different houses since he was born that was because of his family going into poverty. Even though he was in a poor family he still did extremely well in school and Joyce received rewards for it. Joyce also wrote an essay on Ulysses, which made him find that little spark. Because of this essay, he wrote his first story that has the same name as what he wrote his essay on. Joyce was well educated. According to the University of Oxford “In 1898, Joyce began studying modern languages at the Royal University [ which is now University College, Dublin]’’ Joyce did not just study language he also applied for medical school at Royal University but then later chose to leave Dublin and start medical school in Paris instead.

While he was in medical school he noticed that he was read more books about Philosophy and Literature instead of learning about medicine. So, he gave up on medical school and went back home in 1903 to help take care of his sick mother who later died. Then he left home again, and then met a woman who later on became his wife. A few years later he moved back to Paris and was there with his family until World War II made them go back to Switzerland. In the mix of all of this, he found time to write a short story named Eveline.
