The book has nearly 270,000 words (English) and uses 30,030 vocabulary words. As soon as it was published, it aroused great curiosity. Because the author uses "stream of consciousness", a popular psychological research technique in the early 20th century, and carefully considers the layout, the book uses many distinctive methods such as puns, metaphors, and humor. It is now recognized as "the most remarkable novel". In 1998, the Modern Library of America listed this novel among the "Best Novels in the English-speaking World of the 20th Century" and ranked it at the top of the list, which shows how much influence this novel had on 20th century literature.

A classic work of stream of consciousness in the history of literature, a great self-portrait of an artist. More than 30 original illustrations perfectly set off the scenes. This book is a must-read for Qiao fans around the world. This book is the first novel written by Joyce using the stream of consciousness technique, and it is also one of the earliest and most successful stream of consciousness novels in the history of world literature. The novel has a strong autobiographical flavor and describes how Stephen, a young boy from Dublin, escapes the oppression and bullying of boarding school and talks about beauty and imagination on this poor island even abandoned by God, in an attempt to seek and discover a way of life or art in which the human spirit can be expressed freely without hindrance. He broke out of his cocoon and became Stephen, a young artist. His painful process of trying to get rid of the various influences that hindered his development - family constraints, religious traditions and narrow nationalistic sentiments, to pursue the true meaning of art and beauty, is actually a portrayal of the young Joyce's life and creative career from awakening to maturity. Joyce's subsequent masterpieces "Ulysses" and "Finnegans Wake" can be regarded as the sequel to "Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man".
