The greatest novel of the twentieth century now in a beautiful Clothbound Classics centenary
edition Following the events of one single day in Dublin the 16th of June 1904 and what
happens to the characters Stephen Dedalus Leopold Bloom and his wife Molly Ulysses is a
monument to the human condition. It has survived censorship controversy and legal action and
even been deemed blasphemous but remains an undisputed modernist classic: ceaselessly
inventive garrulous funny sorrowful vulgar lyrical and ultimately redemptive. It confirms
Joyce's belief that literature 'is the eternal affirmation of the spirit of man'.
