I love this statement, “it’s loaded with so many allusions that you’d have to spend a lifetime sorting them out, but once you get into its rhythm, its voices, it’s actually not that hard to read, and it’s certainly one of the most rewarding books I’ve ever read.” I’m still searching for a hardcover book of James Joyce… I start to listen its audibook version..

Ulysses Seen is an ambitious project. Thankfully, the creators were not amateurs in reading Joyce’s masterpiece. Even serious readers would love to see the art.

I love the Falstaffian character of Malachi Mulligan. I also love this part where he holds up the mirror to Stephen Dedalus. I like the line, “Who chose this face for me?” The appeal is metaphysical.

Thanks, guys. I blame the initial test version link on Mike Watt’s Twitter feed (that guy from The Minutemen), but it’s fixed now. The “real” version of the site is quite impressive–and I was impressed to begin with…

Thanks!
(and I hope we make all the way to “yes” as well. Seems funny to think of spending ten years of my life illustrating the events of just one day.)
Its a big project, but the only way to possibly do something like this is by engaging the active participation of fans of the novel, letting them help with casting choices, links to historical context and insights to Joyce’s riddles on our blog site. My goal here is to use comics as a popular medium for conveying the beauty and poetry of the book for new readers and Joyceans alike. Feel free to drop by the site with any suggestions or questions.
And thanks again for the great review,
-Rob

Thanks so much for your kind words. We really appreciate it – and yes, we are in it for the long haul. You will get to see Molly’s final monologue.

I just wanted to point out to you that you’ve somehow found the old test version of the site, which I had put under my own domain. If you link to ulyssesseen.com, you’ll find much more reader’s guide content (including our correspondence with the viewers, a better comic interface, and a much faster load speed.

Lastly, I also wanted to let you know that we hope to be a runaway horse, we are Throwaway Horse.

Thanks again for the review and the link, and we encourage you to log in and contribute some thoughts and comments. One of the greatest things about this project is the audience participation.
