"The Little Review "Ulysses" recreates the astonishing experience
of reading the Ulysses installments before U.S. censors shut them
down. Gaipa, Latham and Scholes are deft guides to a masterpiece in
the making. It’s indispensable reading for any serious
Joycean."—Kevin Birmingham, author of The Most Dangerous Book: The
Battle for James Joyce’s Ulysses

“This canny edition of Ulysses episodes from The Little Review
throws revealing light on transatlantic modernism by tracing the
intertwined histories of a seminal journal and Joyce’s masterpiece.
It reconstructs serial reading by embedding the early versions in
their periodical and period contexts while sending us to the 1922
Ulysses with refreshed vision for those who already know it or with
sharpened vision for first-time readers.”—John Paul Riquelme,
Boston University

"More than the shock of recognition, there is a jolt of pleasure,
indistinguishable from wonder, in encountering Ulysses as its first
intrigued readers would have in the proudly modern pages of The
Little Review."—Maria DiBattista, Princeton University

“At last, the very first published version of Ulysses seen by
readers, as it appeared in that courageous journal The Little
Review. Beautiful presented, its context clearly explained. This is
a fascinating vision of the greatest twentieth-century novel in its
first public appearance. The excitement radiates off every page.
Here is a wondrous artwork’s first outing, skillfully returned to
the world.” —Enda Duffy, University of California Santa Barbara

“A beautifully edited volume that allows contemporary readers
to experience Ulysses as it was first published in
serialization, warts and all. The scholarship is meticulous,
helpful, and unobtrusive.” —Sam Slote, Trinity College Dublin
*Sam Slote*
“A treasure - the Ulysses that readers first saw and that
a court banned, beautifully presented to help us encounter
this work in progress as it unfolded in the Little
Review.” —Michael Groden, author of “Ulysses” in Progress and
“Ulysses”in Focus
