    Nothing captures the moment to moment sensation of existing as a human better, and to me the essential part of the psychdelic gravitational pull of boredom is how our moment to moment existence is revealed in all of its artifice to us as if we are glimpsing stage hands whisking on and off props for the next scene in the twilight of stage lights.

    This audiobook/radioplay of Ulysses is one of the greatest feats of literature, it is beautiful and freely available.

    I don't think you can go wrong with which print version you get personally, but I would recommend the Oxford edition.
