The Ulysses Guide

More than just a walking guide, this book provides a guide to James Joyce's novel 'Ulysses' by following its eighteen episodes on their original locations, and recreating the Dublin of 1904 against the background of today's streetscape. It explains the action of the book in terms of its settings and illuminates some of the more challenging sections of Joyce's work. This edition has been updated to incorporate new additions to the landscape, such as the Spire and the James Joyce Bridge, and changes to Joycean landmarks like the Ormond Hotel, Sweny's Pharmacy and Barney Kiernan's pub.
