Joyce's creative process and the construction of characters in Ulysses
This is both a study of how James Joyce created two of the most iconic characters in literature - Leopold Bloom and Marion Tweedy Bloom - as well as a history of the genesis of 'Ulysses'. From a genetic critical perspective, the book explores the conception and evolution of the Blooms as fictional characters in the work's wide range of surviving notes and manuscripts. At the same time, it also chronicles the production of Ulysses from 1917 to its first edition in 1922 and beyond.
