HEAR SAMPLE
“Comes nearer to being the perfect revelation of a personality than any book in existence."—
New York
Times
"To my mind one of the most significant and beautiful books of our time."—Gilbert Seldes,
Nation
“Joyce soars to such rhapsodies of beauty as have probably never been equaled in English prose fiction."—Edmund Wilson,
New Republic
Joyce’s experimental masterpiece set a new standard for modernist fiction, pushing the English language past all previous thresholds in its quest to capture a day in the life of an Everyman in turn-of-the-century Dublin. Obliquely borrowing characters and situations from Homer’s
Odyssey
, Joyce takes us on an internal odyssey along the current of thoughts, impressions, and experiences that make up the adventure of living an average day. As his characters stroll, eat, ruminate, and argue through the streets of Dublin, Joyce’s stream-of-consciousness narrative artfully weaves events, emotions, and memories in a free flow of imagery and associations. Full of literary references, parody, and uncensored vulgarity,
Ulysses
has been considered controversial and challenging, but always brilliant and rewarding.
