James Joyce 's Ulysses

Overview

In the year that marks the 60th anniversary of Joyce's death, poet and critic Tom Paulin examines this truly extraordinary work. Banned for obscenity in the USA and the UK until the 1930s, Irish booksellers did not stock it until as late as the seventies. Scandalous though it was, its "stream of consciousness" style revolutionised the modern novel and influenced everything that followed.
