Ulysses by James Joyce is not just a book; it is a timeless journey through the heart of Dublin, brought to life in this exquisite Clothbound Classics centenary edition. This seminal work invites readers to step into the shoes of Stephen Dedalus, Leopold Bloom, and his wife, Molly, on a seemingly ordinary day—June 16, 1904—while revealing the extraordinary depths of their experiences.

As a cornerstone of modernist literature, Ulysses has defied convention and emerged from controversy to become a beacon of artistic innovation. It has captivated readers for generations with:

  • Rich Prose: A masterful blend of humor, tragedy, and lyricism that engages from beginning to end.
  • Innovative Structure: A narrative that plays with time and perspective, challenging traditional storytelling techniques.
  • Universal Themes: An exploration of love, identity, and the human condition that resonates with every reader.

This edition not only showcases Joyce's literary brilliance but also solidifies Ulysses as a monumental achievement in literary history. Recognized for its groundbreaking approach, this work is a testament to Joyce's belief that literature serves as "the eternal affirmation of the spirit of man."

Whether you are a seasoned literary scholar or a curious newcomer, Ulysses promises to challenge your perceptions, captivate your imagination, and transform your understanding of the written word. Embark on this extraordinary adventure and discover why it continues to be a pillar of modern literature.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
