Book Description:

Ulysses was written and proofread when Joyce's vision was impaired by iritis. The illness required him to use a magnifying glass to enlarge words, separating them out of context and distorting the simple letters. This study considers the effects of Joyce's illness on the text of ""Ulysses"".
