The year 2022 is one century since the publication of James Joyce’s Ulysses, with June 16th as the centenary of Bloomsday itself. This blue is the same shade as the first edition’s cover and opens on an extract from page 393. It’s embossed with Joyce’s real signature and has two magnets installed on the inside, so the book doesn’t flap open when worn.

A celebration of ordinariness, Ulysses is a hybrid of poetry, play and novel. A work of meticulous detail, Joyce once said that if Dublin were to be destroyed, the book could be used to rebuild it brick by brick. Carry the story with you as you wander through Dublin and beyond.
