The Quarterly Review, vol. 238, 225: 'Ulysses' (review of James Joyce: Ulysses by Shane Leslie): 'The practice of introducing the names of real people into circumstances of monstrous and ludicrous fiction seems to us to touch the lowest depth of Rabelaisian realism. When we are given the details of the skin disease of an Irish peer, famous for his benefactions, we feel a genuine dislike of the writer. There are some things which cannot and, we should like to be able to say, shall not be done' (refers to Bloom's reflections in James Joyce: Ulysses.5.306: 'lord Ardilaun has to change his shirt four times a day. Skin breeds lice or vermin') (Deming: The Critical Heritage 209)
