This updated guide traces Ulysses through Dublin's streets, illuminating Joyce's novel with fresh insights and locations.

More than just a walking guide, The Ulysses Guide: Tours Through Joyce's Dublin provides a guide to James Joyce's novel Ulysses by following its eighteen episodes on their original locations, and recreating the Dublin of 1904 against the background of today's streetscape. First published in 1988 and updated here for the streetscape in 2025, it is a much-loved companion to Joyce's masterpiece and a classic of Irish literary criticism.

The Ulysses Guide explains the action of the book in terms of its settings and illuminates some of the more challenging sections of Joyce's work. This latest edition has been updated to incorporate new additions to the landscape, such as the James Joyce Bridge and the Museum of Literature, Ireland, and changes to Joycean landmarks like the Ormond Hotel, Sweny's Pharmacy and Barney Kiernan's pub.

New research has thrown fresh light on some puzzling moments in Ulysses and challenged traditional views on Mr Deasy's school, Bella Cohen's reputation and Stephen's morning whereabouts.
