Description

The Ulysses Guide: Tours Through Joyce's Dublin explains the action of the book in terms of its settings and illuminates some of the more challenging sections of Joyce's work. This latest edition has been updated to incorporate new additions to the landscape, such as the James Joyce Bridge and the Museum of Literature, Ireland, and changes to Joycean landmarks like the Ormond Hotel, Sweny's Pharmacy and Barney Kiernan's pub.

New research has thrown fresh light on some puzzling moments in Ulysses and challenged traditional views on Mr Deasy's school, Bella Cohen's reputation and Stephen's morning whereabouts.
