1926 Ulysses

Description

Rebound

First published by Shakespeare & Company in 1922, this is the May 1926 eighth printing of the novel. 

For this eighth printing the type was entirely reset and the 'Additional corrections' were, for the most part, incorporated in the text

Joyce's novel chronicles the appointments and encounters of the itinerant Leopold Bloom in Dublin in the course of an ordinary day, on the 16 June 1904, mirroring Homer's 'Odyssey', and termed 'a divine work of art' by Nabokov.

Rebound in cloth backed paper covered boards, with endpapers renewed.

Retaining the original half title.

With the bookplate of Richard Benjamin to the verso of the front free endpaper.

An attractive early printing of this important work in the modernist canon.
