{"product_id":"ulysses-an-illustrated-edition","title":"Ulysses: An Illustrated Edition","description":"This strikingly illustrated edition presents Joyces epic novel in a new  more accessible light  while showcasing the incredible talent of a leading Spanish artist.  The neo-figurative artist Eduardo Arroyo (19372018)  regarded today as one of the greatest Spanish painters of his generation  dreamed of illustrating James Joyces Ulysses. Although he began work on the project in 1989  it was never published during his lifetime: Stephen James Joyce  Joyces grandson and the infamously protective executor of his estate  refused to allow it  arguing that his grandfather would never have wanted the novel illustrated. In fact  a limited run appeared in 1935 with lithographs by Henri Matisse  which reportedly infuriated Joyce when he realized that Matisse  not having actually read the book  had merely depicted scenes from Homers Odyssey.  Now available for the first time in English  this unique edition of the classic novel features three hundred images created by Arroyovibrant  eclectic drawings  paintings  and collages that reflect and amplify the energy of Joyces writing.","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44748588417077,"sku":"ByrdShop_1635420261","price":112.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/ByrdShop_1635420261.jpg?v=1760871791","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/ulysses-an-illustrated-edition","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
