A narrator, presumably older, relates an incident from when he was young. He tells how he grew up on a dead-end street, which they refer to as a "blind street" in Dublin. He lives with his aunt and uncle and harbors a secret infatuation for his friend Mangan's sister. He does not talk to the girl, but watches her from his parlor in the mornings so that he can leave his house at the same time she leaves from hers and follow her as they walk to school. One day, she asks if he is going to Araby, a fair that will be held in their city. She cannot attend. He promises to bring her back something from the fair. He spends too much money for the train ride there and on the entrance to bring her anything.
