Tossup
A book titled for how a certain novel “bores me so” is excerpted from a collection that begins with this word, edited by Nola Tully. This word is the last to appear in the text, not the title, of a guide by Harry Blamires. This word was called the fourth “cardinal point” of a passage described as “(human, all too human)” in letters to Frank Budgen, by an author who called this the “female word.” This word opens a passage in which a man asks for breakfast in bed with eggs at the City Arms hotel, and it also appears before a mention of “how he kissed me under the Moorish Wall” in Gibraltar. This word ends a passage whose lack of punctuation was inspired by Nora Barnacle’s letters. That passage ends, “[this word] I said [this word] I will [this word].” For 10 points, what final word of Molly Bloom’s soliloquy ends James Joyce’s Ulysses? ■END■
ANSWER: yes [accept yes I said yes I will Yes; reject synonyms such as “yeah”] (The Harry Blamires book is The New Bloomsday Book.)
