THE MOST CELEBRATED NOVEL
OF THE 20TH CENTURY
JOYCE,
JAMES.
Ulysses
"Ulysses
is the most important contribution that has been made to fictional
literature in the twentieth century. It will immortalize its author with
the same certainty that Gargantua and Pantagruel immortalized Rabelais,
and The Brothers Karamazof's Dostoyevsky. It is likely that there is no
one writing English today that could parallel Joyce's feat..." -Joseph
Collins, The New York Time, 1922
