James Joyce
Joyce’s experimental masterpiece set a new standard for modernist fiction, pushing the English language past all previous thresholds in its quest to capture a day in the life of an Everyman in turn-of-the-century Dublin. Obliquely borrowing characters and situations from Homer’s Odyssey, Joyce takes us on an internal odyssey along the current of thoughts, impressions, and experiences that make up the adventure of living an average day. As his characters stroll, eat, ruminate, and argue through the streets of Dublin, Joyce’s stream-of-consciousness narrative artfully weaves events, emotions, and memories in a free flow of imagery and associations. Full of literary references, parody, and uncensored vulgarity, Ulysses has been considered controversial and challenging but always brilliant and rewarding.
(P)2010 Blackstone Audio, Inc.Eleştirmen yorumları
“Talk about understanding ‘feminine psychology’—I have never read anything to surpass it, and I doubt if I have ever read anything to equal it.”
(Arnold Bennett)“Ulysses will immortalize its author with the same certainty that Gargantua immortalized Rabelais and The Brothers Karamazov immortalized Dostoevsky…It comes nearer to being the perfect revelation of a personality than any book in existence.”
(New York Times)“In the last pages of the book, Joyce soars to such rhapsodies of beauty as have probably never been equaled in English prose fiction.”
(New Republic)“To my mind one of the most significant and beautiful books of our time.”
(Gilbert Seldes, Nation)“Almost every variety of human experience is crammed into the accordian folds of a single day, which makes Ulysses not just an experimental work but the very last word in realism.”
(Amazon.com, editorial review)“Ulysses, considered by many to be the preeminent novel of the modern era, has been recorded for audio before. But this new version, featuring narrator John Lee, has much to recommend it. Even though he’s English, Lee can summon up a convincing Irish accent, and his petulant reading gives the book a great deal of vigor. His pace is ideal, neither too fast to follow the complex novel nor too slow to be wearying.”
(AudioFile)What did you like most about Ulysses?
The author's turn of phrase. The language is beautiful and is made to be read (or heard) out-loud. Ideal for an audio book. The Molly Bloom final chapter could (should?) be a book or play in itself.What did you like best about this story?
Er, there's not really much of a story. The character rolls around Dublin carving a route in the shape of a huge question mark. Stream of consciousness, yes. "Story", no.What do you think the narrator could have done better?
Narration was just right.If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
A film that's far too clever for you. Wake up for the last chapter though.Any additional comments?
A very difficult 30 hours, but like an ultra-marathon the sense of accomplishment at the end made it all worthwhile. I'm not clever enough to understand it, however like a great painting or piece of music you can just stand back at marvel at its brilliance. The final seven sentences (and some 2hrs listening) from Molly in bed are absolutely staggering and had me gripped to the end. Yes!Hard going, but worth it.
