Ulysses takes place in a single day, 16 June 1904, also known as
Bloomsday, it sets the characters and incidents of the Odyssey of
Homer in modern Dublin and represents Odysseus (Ulysses), Penelope
and Telemachus in the characters of Leopold Bloom, his wife Molly
Bloom and Stephen Dedalus, and contrasts them with their lofty
models. The book explores various areas of Dublin life, dwelling on
its squalor and monotony. Nevertheless, the book is also an
affectionately detailed study of the city. In Ulysses, Joyce
employs stream of consciousness, parody, jokes, and virtually every
other literary technique to present his characters. Many consider
it the best novel of the twentieth century. It is powerfully
written, a book for the ages.
