Controversial, scandalous, erudite and funny, Ulysses is undisputedly a landmark of twentieth-century modernism. It charts one day - 16th June 1904 - in the lives of three inhabitants of Dublin, the advertising salesman Leopold Bloom, the artist Stephen Dedalus and Bloom's wife Molly. Their peregrinations, thoughts and encounters form the basis of the narrative, which becomes a celebration of all human experience through the lives of specific individuals in a specific place at a specific time. Ulysses is both an experimental novel and a book intimately concerned with the events of modern life.
"Anyone looking for an accurate, annotated Ulysses will find one here and be grateful to Sam Slote for condensing so much information." TLS "Slote's annotations are by far the most systematic, the most thorough, the most scholarly, of any single-volume Ulysses. He has a very good feel for the things a reader might like to know - His impressive grasp of the textual history of the book brings many benefits, as he casually explains how misprints arose. The notes on scientific and technical terms are particularly clear." The Irish Times "Slote deserves praise for the major strength of this edition: his annotation is extensive, diligent and unfussy, and offer a serious rival to Jeri Johnson's notes in the Oxford edition." The Tablet
Born in Dublin in modest circumstances, James Joyce (1882 - 1941) spent most of his life abroad, living in Trieste, Paris and Zurich. His writings, however mainly centre on Dublin - most famously Ulysses, Dubliners and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. He pioneered and perfected avant-garde prose techniques that saw him rise to the rank of one of Europe's foremost Modernists.
