James Joyce
While Bloom's passionate wife, Molly, conducts yet another illicit liasion (with her concert manager), Bloom finds himself getting into arguments with drunken nationalists and wild carousing with excitable medical students, before rescuing Stephen Dedalus from a brawl and returning with him to his own basement kitchen.
In the hands of Jim Norton and Marcella Riordan, experienced and stimulating Joycean readers, and carefully directed by Roger Marsh, Ulysses becomes accessible as never before. It is entertaining, immediate, funny, and rich in classical, philosophical, and musical allusion.

Reseñas de la Crítica
- Audie Award Finalist, Classics, 2005
"As ambitious and rewarding an audio production as any that exists, an audio experience that truly deserves to be cherished....Readers of Ulysses have long been encouraged to read out loud the more difficult sections for added comprehension and enjoyment of the language. Now, thanks to Naxos, the entire book is available in a performance to savor. It is safe to say that anyone wanting to experience the preeminent work of modern fiction has in this package the perfect audio companion." (AudioFile)
Featured Article: The top 100 classics of all time
Before we whipped out our old high school syllabi and dug deep into our libraries to start selecting contenders for this list, we first had to answer the question, "How do we define a classic?" The answer isn’t as straightforward as you might guess, though there’s a lot to be said for the old adage, "You know it when you see it" (or, in this case, hear it). Of course, most critically, each of our picks had to be fabulous in audio. So dust off your aspirational listening list—we have some amazing additions you don’t want to miss.

What did you like best about Ulysses? What did you like least?
The finish. Actually the last chapter is a little saucy.What could James Joyce have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Not written it.Have you listened to any of Jim Norton’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Excellent. With out Jim Norton and the lady who joined in, I would have never made it through this rambling of an insane Irishman.Did Ulysses inspire you to do anything?
Yes, go to sleep.Any additional comments?
You either will love this book or hate it. Me, I'm in the middle.Waffle

If you ever wanted to know what it would be like to be inside the mind of another person for an entire day, certainly partake of this novel.
It is too much to digest in one listening .. it could be alifetime study.
I realize now why so many authors refer to it: they are bragging about the fact that they made it through.
I will probably become as pedantic about it myself!
PS The reading is magnificent.
tedious if brilliant

Listening to it, especially with good readers makes all the difference in the world. And it is much more enjoyable especially like this version in which the readers know what they are doing. I read that there are professional Joyce readers who do nothing else but perform by reading Joyce. I prefer reading most of the time because listening is too slow and if you speed up the recording to the reading speed it is too fast but listening is the only way to go on this one.
Don't Even Try to Read This Book

The producers of this audiobook have done everything in their power to make Ulysses intelligible. It is an absolutely brilliant production. Jim Norton might just be a genius.
If you like strangeness and mental puzzles or if you are a Literature scholar this is the book for you. I guess I should give Joyce's story five stars but the only thing that made it entertaing for me was the stunning narration and I personally rate stories on their entertainment value.
Brilliant Production!

Great addition to understanding this book

On the other hand, he just doesn't know how to tell a story. There is no narative here, no suspense, no climax. It is just an account of a man's thoughts and trivial actions going through a day.
Joyce badly needs an editor. I found myself looking to see how much longer I was going to have to suffer through a chapter.
The reading, I have to say, was excellent, which is probably what made me stick with it.
Clever but dull

My only issue is with the book itself. I realize it is blasphemy to say, but the fact is that the book ranges from beauty and inventiveness, to self-conscious pretentiousness and fecal obsession.
The Emperor is wearing a half-suit of clothes, but could not ask for a better introduction.
Superlative rendition of a flawed classic

If you already know and appreciate the printed Ulysses, listening to this audiobook edition can be like reconnecting and reminiscing with an old friend. If the audiobook will be your first experience of Joyce's Ulysses, reading the text subsequently will be much less formidable and more enjoyable.
