Ulysses

James Joyce

Ulysses is a modernist novel by the Irish writer James Joyce. Partially serialised in the American journal The Little Review from March 1918 to December 1920, the entire work was published in Paris by Sylvia Beach on 2 February 1922, Joyce's fortieth birthday. It is considered one of the most important works of modernist literature and a classic of the genre, having been called "a demonstration and summation of the entire movement".

Vivek’s Notes

Tessler's installation "Dubling" is made from the novel's 4,311 gerunds: 4,311 bottles stopped by corks stamped with the verbs, and 4,311 postcards of Dublin's river Liffey. It gestures to the river, the stream-of-consciousness style and the metonymic power of objects like an empty wine bottle.
