Few novels are as notorious as Ulysses. It is now considered one of the finest works of modernist fiction of the 20th century. Around 300 books of criticism, 50 written in the past ten years alone, have puzzled over it(為…絞盡腦汁,苦思冥想). But when Ulysses came out in 1922 it caused uproar . For a decade and a half—over twice the length of time it took Joyce to write the book--it was banned in America and Britain. The Most Dangerous Book, by Kevin Birmingham, a literary historian at Harvard University, tells the story of how Ulysses was published in installments in small literary magazines and then in private, limited print runs by dedicated patrons (most of them women). Mr. Birmingham describes the multiple court cases, the legal wrangles and the extraordinary lengths(大費周章) men and women went to in order to smuggle it into Britain and America. In doing so, he offers a refreshing take on a tricky, exhilarating work.

很少有小說像《尤利西斯》那樣臭名昭著。 現在它被認為是20世紀現代主義小說中最具藝術性的作品之一。 僅在過去的十年中,大約有300則書評,其中50則評論了它。 但是當尤利西斯在1922年問世時,引起了軒然大波。 十五年間,超出Joyce寫作時間的兩倍以上,美國和英國都禁止出版。 哈佛大學文學史學家凱文·伯明翰(Kevin Birmingham)撰寫的《最危險的書》講述了《尤利西斯》是如何在小型文學雜誌上分批出版,然後由忠心的顧主(其中大多數是女性)以有限的私人發行方式出版。 伯明翰先生描述了多個法院案件、法律糾紛以及大費周章的將其偷運到英國和美國的男性和女性。 他為棘手的卻令人振奮的著作提供了令人耳目一新的感覺。
