Imagine reading a classic novel like JamesJoyce's Ulysses as though for the first time. Such an exercise, especially when informed by contemporarynarrative theory, makes possible a different reading experience of the work, one with a renewed focus on plot and a surprising amount of suspense. Veteran Joyce scholar Margot Norris offers an innovative study of the processes of reading Ulysses as narrative and focuses on the unexplored implications, subplots, subtexts, hidden narratives, and narratology in one of the twentieth century's most influential novels. It is a striking andessential contribution to literary criticismthat will change the readings and understandings of Joyce's most important work.
