Ulysses is widely regarded as the greatest novel of the twentieth
century. Commemorating the 1922 publication of this modernist
masterwork, One Hundred Years of James Joyce's "Ulysses" tells the
story of the writing, revising, printing, and censorship of the
novel. Edited by world-renowned Irish novelist and literary critic
Colm Toibin, this book presents ten essays by preeminent Joyce
scholars and by curators of his manuscripts and early editions, as
well as an interview with Sean Kelly, the New York gallery owner
who donated his extensive Joyce collection to The Morgan Library
& Museum. Beginning with Toibin's expert interpretation of the
Dublin context for Ulysses, the volume follows Joyce in Trieste,
Zurich, and Paris from 1914 up through the novel's publication-and
the international scandal and fame that ensues. It draws on Joyce's
notebooks and letters, as well as extant manuscripts and proofs, to
provide new insights into Joyce's life, the narrative and place of
Ulysses, and the printed book. Rich and illuminating, this volume
is essential for scholars, fans, and readers of the novel. Along
with the editor, contributors include Ronan Crowley, Maria
DiBattista, Derick Dreher, Catherine Flynn, Anne Fogarty, Rick
Gekoski, Joseph M. Hassett, James Maynard, and John McCourt.
