Joyce’s Ulysses: A Guide Joyce’s Ulysses: A GuideThis could have been a great app. Some of the supplementary materials are useful and interesting, but the app as a whole is poorly executed and disappointing in a number of ways: * Navigation facilities are poor. Text is divided into three sections (Part I, Part II, Part III). There is no Table of Contents or any way to navigate to individual chapters (Proteus, Laestrygonians, Ithaca, etc.). It would have been useful at least for the chapter listings in the “Schema” to link to the corresponding chapters in the text. * Chapters are not even labeled or titled within the text itself, just separated with an unobtrusive marker (**), so there is no way to jump directly to them even with the search facility. The only way to navigate to a desired chapter is by laborious scrolling, particularly annoying within Part II, which makes up the bulk of the book (12 chapters). * Search is limited to only the currently displayed “part,” so there is no way to do a search either on the full text or within a single target chapter. The search box doesn’t even have a clear (“x”) button for quickly clearing the field to begin a new search. * Text display doesn’t remember previous scroll position, so after navigating away to one of the other features (Schema, Character List, etc.), on returning to the text you have to scroll back by hand (or search) to where you were before. * Text can only be viewed in landscape orientation; no portrait available. * No way to add highlighting or personalized annotations beyond the ones already built in. * Like home without Plumtree’s Potted Meat, the Character List is incomplete. Many minor characters (e. g., Nosey Flynn, Paddy Leonard) are missing, some are misspelled (“Lenehen” for Lenehan). * A map of 1904 Dublin with Bloom’s and Stephen’s routes would have been a useful (and obvious) addition, but not included. Too bad. This could have been a much better app than it actually is.
