Ulysses (Abridged)

Ulysses is one of the greatest literary works in the English language. In his remarkable tour de force, Joyce catalogues one day ¿ June 16 1904 ¿ in immense detail as Leopold Bloom wanders through Dublin, talking, observing, musing ¿ and always remembering Molly, his passionate, wayward wife. Set in the shadow of Homer¿s Odyssey, internal thoughts ¿ Joyce¿s famous stream of consciousness ¿ give physical reality extra colour and perspective. Though Ulysses is widely regarded as a `difficult¿ novel, this fresh and lively reading shows its comic genius as well as its great moments of poignancy, making it more accessible than ever before.
