Oxford World's ClassicsUlysses has been the subject of controversy sice copies of the first English edition were burned by the New York Post Office Authorities. Today critical interest centres on the authority of the text, and this edition republishes for the first time, without interference, the original 1922 text. There is a critical introduction which demystifies the complexities of the book, a full textual and publication history, helpful appendices, and explanatory notes that guide the reader through this highly allusive text.
