The book has fascinated scholars and baffled readers for decades with its dense prose, obscure puns and allusions to the characters and events of Homer's epic Greek poem The Odyssey. It has also outraged censors with its choice language and graphic descriptions of basic bodily functions. However, for all its renown and notoriety, it is a book that few have read and even fewer comprehend. To rectify this, BBC News Online presents an irreverent simple chapter- by- chapter guide to the key events, characters and Homeric parallels. CHAPTERS 1- 3 The first three chapters introduce would- be writer Stephen Dedalus, familiar to Joyce readers from his earlier novel A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. Joyce is buried at Fluntern cemetery in Zurich, Switzerland On the morning of 1. June 1. 90. 4, Stephen leaves the disused watchtower he shares with .
After teaching at a nearby school he talks to an ageing master who gives him a letter to deliver to the offices of a Dublin newspaper. He then goes for a long walk on the beach that gives him plenty of time to ponder his literary aspirations and dead mother fixation. CHAPTERS 4- 5 Jewish advertising salesman Leopold Bloom buys a kidney, then returns home to 7 Eccles Street and has it for breakfast. Upstairs Molly, his unfaithful opera singer wife, waits for him to leave so she can entertain her lover.
CHAPTER 6 Bloom attends a funeral at Glasnevin Cemetery, his symbolic encounter with death mirroring Odysseus's descent into Hades. It's a real barrel of laughs. CHAPTER 7 NEAR MISS AT NEWSPAPER OFFICE Bloom and Stephen almost meet in a chapter peppered with tabloid- style headlines.
CHAPTERS 8- 9 It's lunchtime, so Bloom stops at Davy Byrne's . He then pays a call to the National Library where he overhears Stephen sounding off about Shakespeare.
CHAPTER 1. 0 Lots of short episodes. Lots of different characters. All connected by a Vice- Regal parade from one side of town to the other. CHAPTER 1. 1 In a chapter full of song - Joyce's allusion to Homer's deadly Sirens - Bloom narrowly avoids meeting Molly's lover, concert promoter Blazes Boylan. CHAPTER 1. 2 Bloom has an argument with a pub bore whose blinkered anti- Semitism mirrors Homer's one- eyed Cyclops. He exits, closely followed by a cake tin.
CHAPTER 1. 3 As evening falls, Bloom sees two young girls on the beach and masturbates in a chapter written in the florid style of a romantic penny- dreadful. CHAPTER 1. 4 Stephen and Bloom meet at last in a maternity hospital in a chapter whose structure is meant to represent both the nine months of pregnancy and the birth of the English language. And they say this book is hard. CHAPTER 1. 5 READER(horrorstruck) Blimey, this looks like heavy going. STEPHEN'S DEAD MOTHERNo kidding! There's over 1. 00 pages of this stuff, all written in the style of a play script.
But all you need to know is that Bloom follows Stephen to a brothel where they have lots of freaky hallucinations. CHAPTER 1. 6 A weary Bloom takes Stephen to a cabman's shelter where they listen to the ramblings of a tattooed sailor who makes little or no senzzzzzzz CHAPTER 1.
Q. Bloom and Stephen walk back to Eccles Street. Bloom offers Stephen a bed for the night but Stephen refuses and leaves. The section is written in a question- and- answer format like a religious catechism. CHAPTER 1. 8 yes Molly Bloom sits awake in bed yes and remembers her youth in Gibraltar yes and her many sexual partners yes in one unbroken stream of consciousness yes and recalls the day she yes gave herself to Bloom while munching some heavily symbolic seed cake yes (The 3. The final words are: . What possible hope is there for a country which with such self- righteous philistinism scorns its own treasures?
Ulysses is the greatest novel of the twentieth century. It is is wise, warm, witty, affirmative and beautiful. It wasn't written either to shock or to impress. Only pretentious barbarians believe artists set out shock: and how these philistines delight in revealing how unshocked they are. Those who attack it are afraid of it and rather than look foolish they prefer to heckle what they don't understand.
Ignore all this childish, fear- filled criticism, Ulysses will be read when everything you see and touch around you has crumbled into dust. Stephen Fry, London, UKMan goes for a walk around Dublin. Nothing happens David Mosley, Newport Pagnell The unfortunate and undeniable effect of the novel's clever winded language is to alienate the majority of modern people.
Mr Fry claims it will be be read when all else has turned to dust but consider how few people honestly read this 1. Shakespeare. The problem with Ulysses is that it is not populist enough and feels like an authors fancy for other authors.
Sam Le. Spam, London, UKSorry Stephen Fry, but I'm not . Claiming that Ulysses is the greatest novel of the twentieth century is nothing new, but dismissing anyone who doesn't agree with you as . Still, at least it's not Finnegans Wake! Johnny Cullen, london, uk. Cheers BBC. I don't know what Joyce would have to say about it, but I think you've done a fine job! Inspired to pick it up and have a go. Thoroughly enjoyed and would recommend Dubliners also by the man himself, for those who fancy Joyce but might be a bit nervous about Ulysses (like me!) Nessa, London, UKGosh, I hope that's THE Stephen Fry - and well said.
I haven't read Ulysses, but I intend to - as an avid reader, I'm fascinated by the books that have been influential to other writers. Ruth, Reading, UKMy great- grandad appears as a character in the book - old Troy of the Dublin Metropolitan Police. I don't know if people realise that at least some of the characters Bloom encounters in his ramblings were real? John Kavanagh, Billericay, UKTried to read it once, but gave up. What is the point in writing a load of rubbish that fails to entertain and keep one's interest?
It may have had some notorierty and shock value in Edwardian days, but now even the 'marked page brigade' would hardly bother with such trash. The scholars may be fascinated but the reality is that Ulysses is an overrated load of rubbish. Teesside Expat, Kuwait. The book is pretentious hogwash, a classic because the pretentious, intellectual mafia say it is. Don't waste your time on this drivel.
Paul Burns, Liverpool England Can't claim any originality for this, but I still like someone's summary of Ulysses as: . Had it not been on the on the . I can summarise it in two words - pretentious drivel!
Pauline Doherty, Fife, UKThanks BBC from saving me from any temptation to attempt to read what would appear to be an unmitigated load of rubbish. Ruth, Camberly, Surrey. Ah now and you haven't even mentioned the conscious stream style writing, the books worth it for that alone, you'll never know a character so well or follow his thoughts to such an extent as Bloom's! Sex and walking, sex and shopping, sex and fireworks, sex and booze- fuelled hallucinations of dizzying heights and terribly lows. It's pretty funny too - once you get used to it! Rob Mc. Elroy, Stoke, Staffs. If you follow Bloom's trail around Dublin it makes a geographic question mark.
Also, I tried to read the novel like listening to music, if that makes sense, because it 'reads' in a beautifully musical way. Christopher Dent, Leeds, UKI have to admit in my near 6.
I have never read Ulysses. I also have to admit, initially with a touch of guilt, that I have never been in a situation where my conscience has lead me to even have considered that I possibly ought to read it. Reading your guide has restored my faith in my initial judgement!
Thank you, BBC. Tony Hall, Peterborough, Cambs. Ulysses defies any kind of . You got to read it to find out why it is one of the best novels ever written Pele Roy, Exeter I'm sure it's a great, innovative and worthwhile piece of art. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean it's not mind- numbingly boring. Is Joyce to the novel what Birtwistle is to the song? Chris Halligan, Huddersfield, West Yorks. One of the all time favourite books of 2.
I especially liked Joyce's handling of the stream of consciousness technique in narration. And also how time was used in the novel. Probably he was inspired by Bergson!
Joy Roy Choudhury, Calcutta, India. Complete drivel that only reached its lofty .
Could you do Remembrance of Things Past next please? Richard Lucas, Egham, Surrey.
Ulysses defies any kind of . You got to read it to find out why it is one of the best novels ever written. James Joyce is born once in a century. Pele Roy, Exeter, UKIt took me two years to read this book, I had visited Dublin so I read it while following the Dublin Street map, which made it even more time consuming. I stand, so to speak, with an unposted letter bearing the extra regulation fee before the too late box of the general post office of human life!
Thanks for this opportunity. Veronica Maher, Huddersfield.
Author wakes up one morning and decides just how far he can push his luck... S Gardner, Portsmouth, UKMy copy is bible black and like the bible I've never read it though I've heard it quoted and misquoted and in a hundred years from now we'll all like Joyce be dust and your time and faculties'd be more constructively spent on a solitary morning walk far from your bookshelf and dusty book self. Ian Jackson, Lancaster, England. A recently modern take on Life and its Loving, most memorably captured and allegorised in the enduring and religiously contemporised The Temptation of Saint Anthony.
Perhaps I should give it a read. Graham Campbell, Cyber. Space. Boy refuses to meet dying mum's maker. Man meets classical statue's bottoms. Everybody meets everybody in the streets. Gerty meets man's eyes. Boy meets drunken soldier.
Man meets boy (at last). Boy and man meet lying sailor. Boy's lips meet man's cocoa. Man meets wife's bottom in the bed.
Wife meets boy (in her dreams). Roger Moss, Brighton, England. Born. Die. Robert Willoughby, London. I watched a performance of this play at the Dublin plays festival, circa 1.
