Beschreibung

Arguably the greatest novel of the twentieth century, James Joyce's Ulysses remains as much of a shocking and redemptive testament to the human condition as it was when it was first conceived in 1914. Following the events of a single day in Dublin and the experiences of Stephen Dedalus, Leopold Bloom and his wife Molly, Ulysses' ceaseless verbal and formal inventiveness and its astonishing wide-ranging allusions continue to have a profound influence on contemporary culture.

A new, annotated students' edition of one of the twentieth century's greatest novels, using the original 1922 text, now the preferred text of Joyce's masterwork, this annotated Student Edition includes extensive notes, line numbers and an introduction by world-renowned Joycean scholar, Andrew Gibson.

Elegir leer este libro como motivo de mi viaje a Dublín creo que ha sido la mejor idea que he podido tener. Haber paseado por muchas de las calles que se mencionan en él le ha dado un mayor sentimiento de realidad que me ha ayudado a conectar mejor. Además, considero que la historia de Irlanda es increíblemente apasionante, y junto con lo que aprendí en el viaje, creo que me he llevado una lectura completa de sus problemas sociales, estructurales, de su gente... Todos los "cuentos" aportan algo, y Dublín se construía cada vez más nítida según seguía leyendo. A pesar de ello, quiero destacar "Eveline", "Un caso lamentable" y "Los muertos", mis favoritos.
