'Ulysses' is unquestionably one of the supreme masterpieces, in any artistic form, of the twentieth century. A modernist classic, its ceaseless verbal inventiveness and astonishingly wide-range allusions confirm its standing as an imperishable monument to the human condition. As Declan Kiberd writes in his stimulating and provocative introduction, 'Ulysses' is an endlessly open book of utopian epiphanies. It holds a mirror up to the colonial capital that was Dublin on 16 June 1904, but it also offers redemptive glimpses of a future world which might be made over in terms of those utopian moments'.
