Beach recounts about the recording process, \"Joyce himself was anxious to have this record made...But the recording was an ordeal for Joyce, and the first attempt was a failure....Joyce had chosen the speech in the Aeolus episode, the only passage that could be lifted out of Ulysses, he said, and the only one that was \"declamatory\" and therefore suitable for recital. I have an idea that it was not for declamatory reasons alone that he chose this passage from Aeolus. I believe that it expressed something he wanted said and preserved in his own voice.\"\n
