Question: why is ulysses a banned book?
Answer: Banned Book: Ulysses. ... Ulysses was burned in serialized form in the U.S. in 1918 before it was burned as a published manuscript in Ireland in 1922, Canada in 1922, and England in 1923. The book was officially banned in England in 1929, possibly because the mass-burning proved insufficient to suppress its readership.
