Synopsis
The novel takes place in the course of one day (June 16, 1904) in the life of the city of Dublin, and follows the course of several interacting characters who embody a series of parallels to Homer's epic. The three main characters are Leopold Bloom, his faithless wife Molly, and Stephen Dedalus of PORTRAIT OF THE ARTIST AS A YOUNG MAN. The novel is a vivid picture of estrangement, alienation, and the disintegration of a society. Joyce uses the capaciousness of the novel as a vehicle for his ideas about art, literature, Ireland, and the nature of heroism, among other things, and its stream-of-consciousness narration and complex wordplay make it one of the most challenging literary experiences in English, as well as an icon of modernism.

Industry Reviews
"One of the most remarkable features of 'Ulysses' is its interest as an investigation into the nature of human consciousness and behavior....Joyce has studied what we are accustomed to consider the dirty, the trivial, and the base elements in our lives with the relentlessness of a modern psychologist; and he has also...done justice to all those elements in our lives which we have been in the habit of describing by such names as love, nobility, truth, and beauty."
Edmund Wilson
"Joyce has done something. His influence, however, is local."
Gertrude Stein
"Finally I venture a prophecy. Not 10 men or women out of a hundred can read 'Ulysses' through, and of the 10 who succeed in doing so, five of them will do so as a tour de force. I am probably the only person, aside from the author, who has ever read it twice from beginning to end. I have learned more psychology and psychiatry from it than I did in 10 years at the Neurological Institute."
New York Times Book Review - Dr. Joseph Collins (05/28/1996)
"Joyce has only one subject--Ireland. His writing is both a protest against an intolerable spiritual dependency and ironically an immortalization of the power that bound him."
"Sexual Personae" - Camille Paglia
"After more than seventy years of editorial corrections, specialists will buy the 'uncorrected' edition for its accuracy. Others should choose it as much for Johnson's excellent introduction and notes."
Edelman
"A few intuitive, sensitive visionaries may understand and comprehend 'Ulysses,' James Joyce's new and mammoth volume, without going through a course of training or instruction, but the average intelligent reader will glean little or nothing from it--even from careful perusal, one might properly say study, of it--save bewilderment and a sense of disgust. It should be companioned with a key and a glossary like the Berlitz books. Then the attentive and diligent reader would eventually get some comprehension of Mr. Joyce's message."
New York Times (05/28/1922)
