Commemorating the 100th anniversary of Bloomsday, Leopold Bloom's sublimely ordinary day in Dublin that James Joyce recounts in Ulysses, this treasury of Bloomsiana--assorted wit, praise, parody, caricature, bon mots, and reminiscence, all inspired by Joyce's immortal novel--will delight a large and captive audience of literary enthusiasts. A VINTAGE ORIGINAL.

On the fictional morning of June 16, 1904-Bloomsday, as it has come to be known-Mr. Leopold Bloom set out from his home at 7 Eccles Street and began his day's journey through Dublin life in the pages of James Joyce's novel of the century, Ulysses. Commemorating the 100th anniversary of Bloomsday, Yes I Said Yes I Will Yes offers a priceless gathering of what's been said about

Ulysses since the extravagant praise and withering condemnation that first greeted it upon its initial publication.

From the varied appraisals of such Joyce contemporaries as William Butler Yeats (""It is an entirely new thing. . . . He has certainly surpassed in intensity any novelist of our time"") and Virginia Woolf (""Never did I read such tosh""), to excerpts from Tennessee Williams' term paper ""Why Ulysses is Boring"" and assorted wit, praise, parody, caricature, photographs, anecdotes, bon mots, and reminiscence, this treasury of Bloomsiana is a lively and winning tribute to the most famous day in literature.

Reviews for yes I said yes I will Yes.: A Celebration of James Joyce, Ulysses, and 100 Years of Bloomsday

You should approach Joyce's Ulysses as the illiterate Baptist preacher approaches the Old Testament: with faith. --William Faulkner His writing is not about something. It is the thing itself. --Samuel Beckett
