Ulysses (complete Works)
About This Novel
This book is hailed as the first work of stream-of-consciousness novels, and is hailed as the first of the 100 best English novels of the 20th century. This great work, which took 10 years to conceive and 8 years to write, was repeatedly banned in Britain and the United States due to the controversy over whether it was an obscene book, and it went to court twice. The first version of "Ulysses" was published in Paris in 1922. After the efforts of a group of famous writers, the book was finally published in Britain and the United States in 1933. Since then, it has attracted widespread attention from readers around the world and remains a best-seller to this day. The author Joyce used an extremely grotesque writing method to unconventional writing methods to show the various experiences of the protagonist, the depressed and wandering Dublin citizen, advertising salesman Bloom, in Dublin during one day and night on June 16, 1904; at the same time, he also portrayed the psychology of his unfaithful wife, Mrs. Marion, and Stephen's search for his spiritual father. One chapter is written every hour, and the last chapter describes the sexual psychology of the heroine. The whole chapter has only two punctuation marks before and after, which is a masterpiece in literature.

I heard that no one in the world has finished reading this book.
The whole novel begins with Stephen's chaotic and confused stream of consciousness, and is told in chronological order. Stream of consciousness is really postmodern.

I heard it is one of the most difficult books to read, so I came here to experience it!
This is my first time reading a stream of consciousness novel, I hope I can gain a lot from it

I heard that there are only a handful of people in the world who have read this book, so I will take a seat first and look back and savor it later.
The translation is really bad, I want to read the original version
attracted by hearing
I barely finished reading the previous content. I don't understand the text See you later! So many people said yes I don't have the capital to say anything bad either.
