“In order to reinvent the novel as a form, Joyce had first to destroy it”
<p>Through Joyce’s deconstruction of the novel, a new landscape of language and images unfold. <em>Ulysses </em>by Joyce is the embodiment of vulgarity, insanity, and gibberish. Yet amidst this lies thought, word images, and writing so intriguing it is impossible to comprehend it. Joyce created an irreplicable piece of writing whose brilliance resides in the material universe it emerges out of. The internal and external landscape of Leopold Bloom is stripped down for the reader to navigate. Joyce imbues Dublin into the episodes of the story as Bloom’s journey through the city guides its broad narrative framework. This paper will view how Joyce destroys the novel and the methods employed. The next half will explore the tools of writing that develop through this process of breaking down a novel.</p>
