Story
Ulysses is regarded by many as the single most important novel of the 20th century. It tells the story of one day in Dublin, June 16th 1904, largely through the eyes of Stephen Dedalus (Joyce's alter ego from Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man) and Leopold Bloom, an advertising salesman. Both begin a normal day, and both set off on a journey around the streets of Dublin, which eventually brings them into contact with one another.

Story
Death is reporter Jack McEvoy's beat: his calling, his obsession. But this time, death brings McEvoy the story he never wanted to write - and the mystery he desperately needs to solve. A serial killer of unprecedented savagery and cunning is at large. His targets: homicide cops, each haunted by a murder case he couldn't crack. The killer's calling card: a quotation from the works of Edgar Allan Poe. His latest victim is McEvoy's own brother. And his last...may be McEvoy himself.

Fabulous narration.
Wonderful caricature of British upper class bureaucrats. Depressing story line centred on the blind attraction to the Soviet communism. Very Cold War literature.

Excellent
Excellent story, where the descriptions, characterisation and relationship developments do not weigh down the narrative movement.

Book good, narration outstanding
A good book but not Greene’s strongest. Tim Pigott-Smith is brilliant as usual and gives the story more appeal than it might have had. So, worth listening to.

A richly described work.
I listened in one day. Graham Green crafts words into pictures in one's mind.
A most engaging work.
