Description
The Ground Breaking Modernist Novel by James Joyce Ulysses by Irish author James Joyce is a book of literary fiction first published in 1922 in France. This celebrated modernist classic is a modern reworking of The Odyssey. Excerpt 'If Socrates leaves his house today he will find the sage seated on his doorstep. If Judas go forth tonight it is to Judas his steps will tend.' Every life is many days, day after day. We walk through ourselves, meeting robbers, ghosts, giants, old men, young men, wives, widows, brothers-in-law. But always meeting ourselves.' Synopsis Ulysses chronicles the appointments and encounters of the itinerant Leopold Bloom in Dublin in the course of an ordinary day, 16 June 1904. Ulysses is the Latinised name of Odysseus, the hero of Homer's epic poem the Odyssey, and the novel establishes a series of parallels between the poem and the novel. Attracting controversy since its first publication, the work is now considered Joyce's masterpiece. Title Details ◆ Original 1922 text ◆ Literary fiction ◆ 6 x 9 in ◆ Matte Cover ◆ White Paper
