Virginia Woolf adopted new technique like the interior monologue, the shift of point of view, the moment of being; a metaphoric use of language remind in poetry disregarding chronological time arrangement of events; in a simultaneous concept of time where the present includes the past memories and the future expectation. Beside Virginia Woolf James Joyce is consider the greatest novelist of the western world in his time. He took experimentation to the maximum, he was interesting in convey reality as really is and he adopted myth as the structurally principle of his novel. Indeed the myth of Ulysses provides the content to give unity and organization to his master piece. What Joyce is trying to do is render the reality of his time in the most realistic he knew; that is why he adopted a the total stream of consciousness technique. It is very complex, it is not any connectors, any punctuation, any paragraph. According to the workings of the stream of consciousness, conscious flow apparently in a circular way. It follows that the position of the reader became most important. Indeed he is asked a lot to the reader who ad to provide the logical and semantic connection to the flow of words and thoughts. He also reduces plot to the minimum, what is mainly interesting is the inner life of his characters.
