Ulysses by James Joyce

By: Lina
  • Summary

  • NOTE: Because of the nature of this project, there was a bending of usual LibriVox procedures: pub-like background noise was encouraged, as well as group readings; and no editing was required, so in places there may be some accidental variation from the original text ... Listener be warned! Here is some more information about the genesis of the LibriVox Ulysses project. (Summary by Hugh McGuire)Still one of the most radical novels of the 20th Century, James Joyce's Ulysses is considered to have ushered in the era of the modern novel. Loosely based on Homer's Odyssey, the book follows Leopold Bloom and a number of other characters through an ordinary day, twenty four hours, in Dublin, on June 16, 1904. The text is dense and difficult, but perfectly suited to an oral reading, filled with language tricks, puns and jokes, stream of consciousness, and bawdiness.Full cast list for sections 15f and 15g:Character identifications read by ChipRead by: Kirsten Ferreri and Max Porter ZasadaBloom read by David BarnesStephen read by Alex FosterKitty read by Kristin LeMoineFlorry read by AlessiaZoe read by Catharine EastmanLynch read by Stephan MöbiusBella, list of names, and sundry characters read by Kymm ZuckertMarion read by Nikolle DoolinBoylan read by RainerPrivate Carr read by Matthew ShepherdPrivate Compton read by Seth WoodworthCissy Caffrey read by Kara ShallenbergMaginni read by Hugh McguireThe Mother read by Cynthia LyonsAdditional sundry characters and background voices:Peter Yearsley, Martin Clifton, Stephan Möbius, Kymm Zuckert, Ted Delorme, Hajduk, John Greenman, Tina Tilney, Annie Coleman, The Good Reverend Doctor, Mark F.
