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
One of William Faulkner’s finest novels, As I Lay Dying, originally published in 1930, remains a captivating and stylistically innovative work. The story revolves around a grim yet darkly humorous pilgrimage, as Addie Bundren’s family sets out to fulfill her last wish: to be buried in her native Jefferson, Mississippi, far from the miserable backwater surroundings of her married life.

Publisher's Summary
Das Leben meint es nicht gut mit Moses Elkanah Herzog. Schon die zweite Ehefrau lässt ihn sitzen, zu allem Übel auch noch zugunsten seines besten Freundes, die Universitätskarriere stagniert und auch die selbstverordnete Europareise bringt keine Erleichterung. Herzog steckt fest. In seiner Verzweiflung schreibt er Briefe an Philosophen - lebende wie tote -, an Freunde, an Gott.
Saul Bellow ist mit seinem Roman "Herzog" ein vielgestaltiges Meisterwerk der Erzählkunst gelungen. Für seine Arbeit wurde der Autor mehrfach ausgezeichnet, 1976 schließlich auch mit dem Literaturnobelpreis.
