Ulysses by James Joyce
Publishing: 1925 Shakespeare and Company 7th Printing
An early printing of literary history. Ulysses, one of the most influential novels in modern literature, in exceptionally well preserved original blue paper wrappers. When it was released in 1922, James Joyce’s masterpiece created a sensation, leaving an indelible mark on the literary world and leading to its banning in several countries. Ingenious readers found clever ways to smuggle the book into the United States and England. Today, it is notoriously difficult to find a well-preserved copy in its original binding.
