A Modern Ulysses V2: Being The Life, Loves, Adventures And Strange Experiences Of Horace Durand is a novel written by Joseph Hatton. The book follows the life of the titular character, Horace Durand, as he navigates his way through various adventures and experiences. The story is a modern retelling of the classic Greek myth of Ulysses, which follows the hero as he embarks on a long journey home after the Trojan War. In this modern version, Horace Durand is a successful businessman who finds himself embroiled in a series of romantic entanglements and dangerous situations. The book explores themes of love, loss, and the human condition, as Horace struggles to find his place in the world and make sense of his experiences. The novel is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different phase of Horace’s life. The first section introduces us to Horace as a young man, just starting out in the business world. We follow him as he rises through the ranks and becomes a successful entrepreneur, but also as he experiences heartbreak and disappointment in his personal life. Later sections of the book see Horace embarking on various adventures, from sailing the high seas to exploring exotic locales. Along the way, he meets a cast of colorful characters, including fellow travelers, love interests, and dangerous enemies. Throughout the novel, Hatton’s writing is vivid and evocative, painting a rich and detailed picture of Horace’s world. The book is a compelling read, full of action, romance, and intrigue, and is sure to appeal to fans of adventure stories and classic literature alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
