1927Best.-Nr. 48657Paris: Shakespeare and Company 1927. Very good plus. Ninth printing of James Joyce's masterpiece one of the great works of literature in English. ULYSSES first saw print in the modernist literary magazine THE LITTLE REVIEW edited by Margaret Anderson and Jane Heap. Midway through their serialization issues of the magazine were seized and the editors were brought to trial in the fall of 1920. When they were convicted ULYSSES was abandoned only about half of it published. This disaster led to the now iconic publication of the book by Sylvia Beach at Shakespeare & Company of which this copy is a ninth printing. 8'' x 6.25''. Later blue cloth boards. 736 pages. Leaves with a touch of toning light edgewear. Firm. Shakespeare and Company unknown books

Unauthorized printed and discreetly distributed by Samuel Roth in New York City and Philidelphia six years before before Ulysses' ban would be lifted in the U.S. Although Roth had formerly published Ulysses' serially in Two Worlds Monthly these full length copies made to pass as Shakespeare and Co.'s ninth printing would ulitmately place Roth in jail. Despite its disreputation it is nevertheless held by several special collections across the U.S. and is an essential character in the history of Ulysses and banned books in 20th century America.

Best.-Nr. ST15816-12Dublin: Lilliput Press 1997. No. 3 OF 100 SPECIAL COPIES of the "Illegal" First Dublin Edition bound in quarter leather and signed by Rose and Banville from a total edition of 1000 numbered and 26 lettered copies. 240 x 158 mm. 9 1/2 x 6 1/4". 4 p.l. v-lxxxiii 1 739 3 pp.Edited by Danis Rose. With a foreword by John Banville. Publisher's quarter blue morocco over navy cloth boards smooth spine with silver lettering. In a blue buckram slipcase. In mint condition. This is the first printing of Joyce's masterpiece actually to be done in Ireland--75 years after its initial publication. Generally recognized as the most important 20th-century novel in English Joyce's chronicle of Leopold Bloom's odyssey through Dublin excited much controversy upon publication in 1922 and was for years a target of censorship especially in the U.S. and U.K. The present edition also met with some animosity when it was discovered that the editor prominent Joyce scholar Danis Rose used some language from the original manuscripts without permission from Joyce's estate. A lawsuit for copyright infringement was issued and this work subsequently became known as the "Illegal Edition." Despite the unpleasant dispute Rose's "Ulysses" was lauded for its readability and was described by the Irish Times as "a landmark edition for first-time readers and life-time fans." Founded in 1984 and still in operation today the Lilliput Press has published more than 600 titles of Irish interest and is regarded as one of Ireland's most esteemed small publishers. This strictly limited edition of 100 rarely appears for sale: we could trace just one auction appearance at PBA Galleries in 2005 where a copy was sold for $1495 all in. Lilliput Press unknown books

1924Best.-Nr. 0105979Shakespeare and Company 1924. 4th Edition. Soft cover. Good. 4th Printing of James Joyce's Ulysses Published in Paris in 1924 by Shakespeare and Company. This is the 4th printing and only the second printing by Shakespeare and Company the 1st printing was by Shakespeare and Co. but the 2nd and 3rd printings were done in the UK by a different publisher the Egoist Press. One of the earliest obtainable printings after the first due to the fact that many copies of the second and third printings both by the Egoist Press were destroyed by English and American authorities. Extremely fragile and in poor condition with covers and many pages detached. Spine missing. It is rare to find such an early printing in the original wrappers that has not be hideously rebound and therefore one that looks and feels much more like the original publication. But the paper is dry and brittle and flakes easily upon handling. Shakespeare and Company unknown books
