Ulysses

James Joyce
Ulysses
1922

They say this is the greatest novel written in the 20th century. And, as it turns out, they're right. If you have trouble following this story of a single day in Dublin, then get your hands on some crib notes and plunge on in. Sure, there are several layers of meaning, but even the top-most layer is astonishingly powerful.
