Ep. 50 - The Birth of Ulysses (w/ Phil Holden)

We welcome Phil Holden to the podcast to talk about the early publishing of history of Ulysses. Phil is a collector of early Ulysses editions, so he shares his collection while telling the arduous tale of getting a book like Ulysses published in the first place, the role played by Sylvia Beach and Shakespeare and Company in publishing Ulysses, concerns about obscenity, pirate editions of Ulysses, books as art objects, the complications caused by Joyce’s early manuscripts, and who should play James Joyce in a movie version of this epic tale! This episode has a strong visual component, so consider watching the video version available below and on our YouTube channel.
