James Joyce's "Ulysses" (first published in 1922) is a landmark modernist novel that follows the events of a single day in Dublin through the intertwined perspectives of three central characters: Stephen Dedalus, Leopold Bloom, and Molly Bloom. Joyce weaves ordinary routines with inventive language, interior monologue, and sharp observational wit to illuminate the complexities of perception, memory, and human connection. Drawing on classical structures while radically experimenting with narrative form, "Ulysses" reshaped the possibilities of the novel and remains one of the most influential works of twentieth-century literature. It is regularly included in major rankings of the world's greatest books, among them the BBC's "100 Novels That Shaped Our World.
