Ulysses: Hades & Aeolus

Details

We'll be discussing the fourth and fifth episodes of Part II informally known as Hades and Aeolus. They are around 29 and 34 pages long in most editions. Since most copies of the novel don't clearly show where the chapters begin, here is a breakdown:

Hades begins with "Martin Cunningham, first, poked his silkhatted head into the creaking carriage and, entering deftly, seated himself." and ends with "Thank you. How grand we are this morning."

Aeolus begins with the headline IN THE HEART OF THE HIBERNIAN METROPOLIS and ends with "—Tickled the old ones too, Myles Crawford said, if God Almighty's truth was known."
