For @caesar963 and New Hibernia! LOL

I made an attempt to enhance and clean up this
recording as best I could, from cassette tapes. There’re mp3 versions out there, but their quality fares much worse. The only quality audio versions available are in non-downloadable formats, with DRM protection etc, with a paid monthly subscription to the provider eg. (Pandora, Apple Music, Tidal etc) Even then, it is occasionally pulled and then available, like they do with certain songs from certain artists or even whole albums. ENJOY!

Ulysses, novel by Irish writer James Joyce, first published in book form in 1922. Stylistically dense and exhilarating, it is generally regarded as a masterpiece and has been the subject of numerous volumes of commentary and analysis. The novel is constructed as a modern parallel to Homer’s Odyssey.
All the action of Ulysses takes place in and immediately around Dublin on a single day (June 16, 1904). The three central characters—Stephen Dedalus (the hero of Joyce’s earlier Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man); Leopold Bloom, a Jewish advertising canvasser; and his wife, Molly—are intended to be modern counterparts of Telemachus, Ulysses (Odysseus), and Penelope, respectively, and the events of the novel loosely parallel the major events in Odysseus’s journey home after the Trojan War.
