Step by wicked step‚ my boots sank further and further into the thick‚ red-tinged land as if the devil himself were dragging my body straight into the depths of hell. The rhythmic squelching stabbed through my rubber soles‚ radiating pain throughout my soul as it seared everything in its path. Squelch‚ squelch‚ squish. My tempo was interrupted by those cursed boots refusing to budge from the stubborn terrain. As if taunting me‚ the earth unhooked my feet from the damned soil and I found myself catapulted

They look like they are disappointed. Disappointed in what? Have I played yet? Have I done anything yet? Everything becomes a blur as I pick up my guitar and start to play.

The indirect interior monologue we get next is essential. There is something seriously affecting Henry— his faith is being tested— and what he once found comforting is now not.

The similarities between Joyce’s Ulysses and Homer’s Odyssey are unmistakable even from Joyce’s choice of title as Ulysses is the Latin derivative of Odysseus the hero portrayed in Homer’s Odyssey. Adding to the comparisons between the two are the numerous characters portrayed throughout Joyce’s novel as they are a direct modernised parallel to those depicted in Homer’s poem. Joyce’s character Leopold Bloom is a mirror image to Homer’s Odysseus as is Odysseus’s son Telemachus interpreted through

Once again Hillenbrand uses her stylistic imagery. Here‚ like many other times‚ she tries to appeal to emotions by describing how physically pathetic Louie has become. However‚ Louie’s interior monologue makes a statement that narration can not quite capture.
