Ulysses

The complete and unabridged text, as corrected and entirely reset in 1961.

Ulysses chronicles the passage of Leopold Bloom through Dublin during an ordinary day, 16 June 1904. The novel’s stream-of-consciousness technique, careful structuring, and experimental prosefull of puns, parodies, and allusions, as well as its rich characterisations and broad humour, made the book a highly regarded novel in the Modernist pantheon. In 1998, the Modern Library ranked Ulysses first on its list of the 100 best English-language novels of the 20th century.
