Most readers have heard of Ulysses. Few have actually read it. This edition is for both. Published in Paris in 1922, Ulysses follows Leopold Bloom through a single day in Dublin — June 16, 1904 — and in doing so dismantles every assumption about what a novel can be and do. Stream of consciousness, interior monologue, parody, myth, obscenity, tenderness, comedy: Joyce deploys them all simultaneously, not as technique but as necessity. He was not being difficult. He was being honest about the way a mind actually works. Ulysses — One day. One city. One man buying a kidney for breakfast, ...

To answer these questions, we must examine the history, philosophy, and ideas of the thinkers who shaped its development.

Every word Oscar Wilde published — the novel, the plays, the poems, the essays, the fairy tales, and the two masterpieces he wrote in disgrace — in a single authoritative edition. Oscar Wilde lived two lives simultaneously: the most celebrated wit in Victorian London, and a man whose inner life was at war with everything the society around him demanded. He understood, better than almost anyone before or since, that style is not decoration but argument — that how you say something is inseparable from what you are saying. He paid for that understanding with two years in Reading Gaol and...

Virginia Woolf called it the only English novel written for grown-up people. She was not wrong. Published in eight instalments between 1871 and 1872, Middlemarch does something no novel before it had done with such precision: it takes ordinary life seriously. Not the extraordinary life — not war, not shipwreck, not crime — but the life of a provincial English town, its marriages and ambitions and failures and the slow accumulation of days that constitutes most of human existence. George Eliot understood that this was the real subject. Everything else was avoidance. Dorothea Brooke — ...
