Joyce's modernist masterpiece follows Leopold Bloom through a single day in Dublin—June 16, 1904—recreating Homer's Odyssey as urban wandering through bars, brothels, and the interior landscapes of human consciousness. This is literature pushed to its limits: experimental, obscene, hilarious, and profound. Joyce doesn't just capture Dublin but invents new ways of writing thought itself, creating a novel that's simultaneously the most difficult and most human book in English. This modernist novel revolutionized stream of consciousness technique and remains the ultimate literary experiment.
