Racing against impending blindness, a monomaniacal genius feeds off his own love life to create a novel he hopes will change the art form of fiction forever. And James Joyce got his way, but at an enormous price.
"In Bed With Ulysses" tells the intriguing and sometimes comical story of how the novel that is widely considered the greatest work of modern fiction was created, detailing the toll Ulysses took on its author and his family, the shockwaves it caused around the world, the fight to censor and suppress it, and its ultimate liberation and impact.
It is a "high-low" documentary, exploring the most arduous of artistic efforts, the loftiest of literary achievements, and the carnal elements of human consciousness that infused and drove the book's creation.
