«Ulises» is the modernist novel by James Joyce, published by Lumen in hardcover (696 pages, in Spanish).
The story takes place in Dublin on June 16, 1904, and follows Leopold Bloom and Stephen Dedalus over the course of a full day. Each episode evokes a passage from the Odyssey, while Joyce alternates interior monologue, shifts in register, and formal experimentation to portray urban life of the era.
The work was originally published in 1922; this edition is from 1991, with translation and prologue by José María Valverde, and belongs to the Palabra en el Tiempo collection.
For readers interested in modernism, narrative experimentation, and twentieth-century Irish literature.
James Augustine Aloysius Joyce was an Irish novelist, poet, and literary critic. He contributed to the modernist movement and is regarded among the most influential and important writers of the 20th century. Joyce's novel Ulysses (1922) is a landmark in which the episodes of Homer's Odyssey are paralleled in a variety of literary styles, particularly stream of consciousness. His other well-known works include the short-story collection Dubliners (1914) and the novels A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916) and Finnegans Wake (1939). His other writings include two books of poetry, a play, correspondence, and occasional journalism.
