The first complete publication of Ulysses was issued in a limited edition of 1000 copies by Sylvia Beach, proprietor of the Shakespeare & Co. book shop. The London edition published later that year had 2000 copies, 500 of which were confiscated and burned by the New York Post Office authorities as obscene. The first legal edition in America was not published until 1934, by Random House.
