THE MOST CELEBRATED NOVEL OF THE 20TH CENTURY
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 FIRST EDITION, one of 750 printed on handmade paper (out of a total edition of 1000). An exceptional, unrestored copy in original wrappers. Top corner bumped (causing creasing to wrapper and beginning of text). Wrappers with chip to base of spine and a few creases to front wrapper.
