Summary
James Joyce pays homage to Homer's Odyssey, drawing on many of the Greek poet's themes with this eighteen-part novel. Set in 1922 Ireland, when the city of Dublin was rife with social unrest and radical nationalism, Ulysses chronicles a day in the life of Leopold Bloom as he navigates the city on his usual routine. However, his disdain for violence, indifference for Irish independence, and his embitterment for his adulterous wife leave Bloom in a series of predicaments
