Ulisses

Book • 1922
Published in 1922, 'Ulysses' is a groundbreaking work of modernist literature.

The novel explores the inner and outer lives of its characters through a variety of stylistic innovations, including stream-of-consciousness narration and multiple literary styles.

It parallels Homer's 'The Odyssey' with Leopold Bloom as Ulysses, Stephen Dedalus as Telemachus, and Molly Bloom as Penelope.

The book delves into themes such as antisemitism, human sexuality, British rule in Ireland, Catholicism, and Irish nationalism, all set against the backdrop of early 20th-century Dublin.

Joyce's experimental prose, rich characterization, and broad humor have made 'Ulysses' one of the greatest literary works of the 20th century.
