Often described as the twentieth century’s greatest novel, Ulysses, first published in 1922 and modelled on Homer’s Odyssey, is an account of one day in the life of Dublin, focusing on the humble Leopold Bloom and his sensuous wife, Molly. An earthy story, a virtuoso technical display and a literary revolution all rolled into one, Ulysses is one of the few books everyone has to read.

Virtually unknown in her lifetime, the poetry of Emily Dickinson (1830–86) is now recognised as a major literary achievement. Unique in style, obsessive in content, these short and vivid lyrics together form what is perhaps the greatest body of religious verse in modern times.

Now available in a unique hand bound version.
