  • Description

    Ulysses is a classic novel by James Joyce.

    Summary of the Book

    Ulysses is one of the cornerstones of English literature. It deals with the stories of Stephen Dedalus, the protagonist of Joyce’s earlier semi-autobiographical novel, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, and Leopold Bloom. Dedalus and Bloom go about their separate business, meeting a gallery of memorable Dubliners. Joyce includes every detail from their day-to-day lives and takes readers into their thoughts, emotions and memories. Through the events of one day, Joyce paints a picture bright enough to detail the experience of being a human, and defines the standards of realism in literature once and for all. This work is largely considered one of the most monumental works of English literature, and James Joyce’s crowning achievement.

    Author Info
    • James Joyce (1882-1941), Irish novelist, noted for his experimental use of language in such works as Ulysses (1922) and Finneganns Wake (1939). Joyce's technical innovations in the art of the novel include an extensive use of interior monologue; he used a complex network of symbolic parallels drawn from the mythology, history, and literature, and created a unique language of invented words, puns, and allusions. He also published a collection of poems titled Chamber Music in 1907.

    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'
