The narrator an unnamed boy describes the north Dublin Street on which house is located. He thinks about priest who died in the house before his family moved in and the games that he and his friends are played in the street  every day begins for this narrator with such glimpse of mangan's sister talks little but she is always in his thoughts. She often comes to the front of their house to call the brother.

Boy  has typical crush on the sister of his friend because of it journey to a Bazaar or world fair called Araby Joyce spends .most of the story introducing the boys thoughts on the area in which he lives.
The story begins with the description of setting. Boys feel very emotionless about where he lives and how his neighbours appears. As we quickly introduced mangan's sister something that put a smile on the boys face.

He says her dress swungs as she moved her body and the soft rope of her hair tossed from side to side. We know that it is nothing more than his hormonal instincts because we learn that he had never spoken to her before and has no idea what kind of person she is.he says my body was like harp and her words and gesture were like figures running upon the wires. The boy is physically attracted to her and does not know how to respond.

During their first conversation girl asked him if he was going to Araby? But he forgets  what he answered because at that time it is not important. Here also depicted his journey to Araby . He still hates all the things about community in which he lives. After intolerable delay , on the train he finally arrives at the building which contains "magical name" of "Araby"

He notes nearly all the stalls were closed  . Everywhere in the darkness. He describes experience of one stalls when younf lady approached him.stall are seemed to be dark and foreign.

The ending paragraph of the moral point of "Araby" .After talking to the lady ,the lights go out entire hall goes dark. He finally arrived argued with his uncle.the boy in the dark .He hide the dark and he lives in the dark. Joyce uses darkness to represent the boys home.
