Ulysses

The young poet Stephen has been recalled from Paris to Dublin to be at his mothers deathbed. But he refuses her dying wishes: to kneel and pray for her. Now holed up in his Martello tower outside the city walls he has to suffer the taunts of Buck Mulligan by day and by night the vision of her eyes shaking out of death to shake and bend my soul. Timelessly evocative Ulysses is far more than the story of Stephen Dedalus journey through Dublin.It is a huge rich portrayal of human life. In this magnificent highly accessible part reading part dramatisation - which includes the famous Molly Bloom soliloquy - the power and truth of Joyces vision is as potent as ever
