![James Joyce: Ulysses [1994]](https://img.chaptersbookstoreofficial.shop/images/product/james-joyce-ulysses-1994-1.jpg)
The Story
'It is the book to which we are all indebted and from which none of us can escape.' T.S. Eliot
Ulysses is one of the great masterpieces of the twentieth century. Loosely modelled on the wanderings of Homer's Ulysses, the novel follows the interwoven paths of Stephen Dedalus, bitterly estranged from his father, and the middle-aged Dubliner, Leopold Bloom, still grieving for his dead infant son. Over the course of twenty-four hours, their unwitting quest for each other - surrogate son for surrogate father - is enacted against an extraordinary, celebratory portrait of the city of Dublin.
This edition is the standard Bodley Head text from 1960.
