ULYSSES BY JAMES JOYCE

This masterpiece of contemporary writing, loosely inspired on the Odyssey, follows common Dubliners in 1904. Joyce takes Celtic lyricism and obscenity to glorious extremes as he depicts a single day in the life of Dubliner Leopold Bloom, his pals Buck Mulligan and Stephen Dedalus, his wife Molly, and a captivating ensemble of supporting characters. Exciting creative tactics include wordplay, earthy comedy, and introspective monologues. A significant literary achievement of the 20th century
