Saint-Amour Pomona College The following text represents a landmark advance in the little known but burgeoning field of paranormal Joyce studies. a During recent minor planetary conjunction, our medium and spiritual amanuensis, Dr. Felix Culpepper, contacted the spirit of Samuel Roth, the American publisher who immortalized himself by pirating James Joyce's Ulysses during the 1920s. Roth's spirit is as vol as man uble the was in life, and he kept Dr. Culpepper at his mill wheeling three-gigabyte Ouija board for some eighty hours, tran a scribing at breakneck pace.
