cover of Ulysses _ Joycean



Ulysses as seen on the Oxford edition of the book.


James Joyce's Ulysses: One Page Every Day _ Follow the link to the One page a day version __the greatest book ever writ!





It is the epic of two races (Israel-Ireland) and at the same time the cycle of the human body as well as a little story of a day (life)... It is also a kind of encyclopaedia. My intention is not only to render the myth sub specie temporis nostri but also to allow each adventure (that is, every hour, every organ, every art being interconnected and interrelated in the somatic scheme of the whole) to condition and even to create its own technique.
(James Joyce, Letters, 21st September 1920)



And this wondrous book ends in a great Big Yes as said by Molly Bloom.
