Ulysses - James Joyce

The greatest novel of the twentieth century, now in a beautiful Clothbound Classics centenary edition

Following
the events of one single day in Dublin, the 16th of June 1904, and what
happens to the characters Stephen Dedalus, Leopold Bloom and his wife
Molly, Ulysses is a monument to the human condition. It has survived
censorship, controversy and legal action, and even been deemed
blasphemous, but remains an undisputed modernist classic: ceaselessly
inventive, garrulous, funny, sorrowful, vulgar, lyrical and ultimately
redemptive. It confirms Joyce's belief that literature
'is the eternal
affirmation of the spirit of man'.
