A unique 1932 hardback edition of Ulysses by James. Ulysses is one of the most groundbreaking and influential novels of the 20th century. Its stream-of-consciousness style and revolutionary narrative structure make it a cornerstone of modernist literature. Ulysses was controversial and even banned in several countries due to its explicit content. Early editions have added significance because of the struggle to publish and distribute the work. This Edition is unique because it includes the Decision of the United States District Court Rendered by Judge John M. Woolsey exonerating Ulysses of the charge of obscenity. A 1932 edition is among the earlier printings after the first and thus of interest to collectors who prize books printed close to the author's lifetime.
