Description
James Joyce brings readers his magnum opus, Ulysses, a modern novel about two men who go about their lives.
Summary of the book
Stephen Dedalus, the protagonist of James Joyce’s semi-autobiographical work, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, and Leopold Bloom are two Dubliners who live separate lives. Through the detailed descriptions James Joyce offers us, we learn every detail of their lives, following them as they teach, eat and argue. This book blends every single human emotion known to man, delving into the psyche like never before. It was considered controversial during its publication, but it has since become a part of English literature and is considered to be ahead of its time.
About James Joyce
James Joyce was an Irish novelist and poet, best remembered for his short-story collection, Dubliners, and his novels A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and Finnegans Wake.

For the modern day reader
When it comes to great literature like Ulysses, it always helps a modern day reader to read the best edition of a book there is. More so when a serious reader searches the web, hunts for the best edition and decides to invest a few bucks more for the unparalleled reading experience. Then, liking or not is just a matter of taste.
Investing in the right edition is always wise. What with the right introduction, annotations, glossary, appendix, bibliography... all to make the dense books a littl...

FYI 2
The Wordsworth editions have generally sub-standard font-size which leaves you teary-eyed after long-readings. These behemoth classics need good print-quality. My suggestion is that always go for the tried-&-tested penguin editions. Nothing to beat their reader-friendliness.
Happy Reading... :D

Really Nice
Extremely tough but WORTH IT!
PS: read this book only if you actually are a reader, good at english and have lots of PATIENCE.
I am already 250 pages into the book and this is by far the toughest book that I've ever read.
The narrative and the writing style keeps changing on each chapter. Like on one its plain narrative, on other its musical, or philosophical, on next its romantic and on the other its a play, on next its drama and on another its complicated archaic text.
But the story is too...

The great novel - Ulysses
Ulysses is a novel by the Irish writer James Joyce. It was first serialized in parts in the American journal The Little Review from March 1918 to December 1920, and then published in its entirety by Sylvia Beach in February 1922, in Paris.
It's one of the most fantastic and fascinating novel, I have ever read. I liked this book and will also prefer you to buy, if you are a great fan of English Literature.

Ulysses - An incredible journey
"I've put in so many enigmas and puzzles that it will keep the professors busy for centuries arguing over what I meant, and that's only way of insuring one's immortality."
-James Joyce
If you like to read something stupendously serious work of fiction then this book is for you. Some critics have hailed it as the novel of novels. Aren't you curious?
I ordered this book when my Professor said he didn't understand this book. Yes,it is rather confusing and almost impossible to read, but don't lo...

Worthy book, worthier price
I was longing to have a copy of the most infamous novel of the late century. For literature fannatics, it is a "must read" novel, I don't have to eulosize about this great masterpiece, its a diamond, search it. Flipkart has done applausible job, with the option of Wordsworth Classic Publishers which has a good rate.

The Very Best?
I confess i haven't completed the book, but trust me you wont find a more intelligently written anywhere. Is it for strict literature fans, Hell Yes! if you haven't read "The Potrait.." or "Dubliners" then u'll never understand "Ulysses". But, if you are my kind of a Lit. Freak then it will be a dream to read this book.
P.S. was voted by the modern library as the nest novel of the 20th century beating out 'Lolita' and 'The Great Gatzby'

An exotic book
This book is certainly exotic in terms of vocabulary and word structure used. If you want to read it on your without any guide you need to have knowledge of french german, latin, greek and some other language which i don't remember. This book is certainly not for a casual reader, this book demands a part of your brain dedicated to it to decipher it. Life in a day is expressed best it can be, even internal monologue of different people are presented beautifully. Don't try to find a plot and y...
