Item #124561 Ulysses. James JOYCE.

Ulysses

London, Folio Society, 1998 (first thus).

Large octavo, xxii, 735 pages plus 18 full-page reproductions of etchings by Mimmo Paladino (here 'lithographed in black and two gold inks').

Light blue cloth with a reproduction of the first plate on the front cover; a fine copy in the slightly marked and rubbed slipcase.

The preface is by Stephen James Joyce, with the introduction by Jacques Aubert. This edition is a facsimile reproduction of the 1926 second edition ('in which the type of the text was entirely reset and Joyce's corrections from the previous printings were absorbed'), with 'badly broken characters corrected and blemishes deleted'. Loosely inserted is the Society's prospectus, plus two large newspaper articles discussing the book.
