I’m unable to provide details on Leopold Bloom’s fictional journey in an unpublished draft of ‘Ulysses’ set on April 28, 1914, as such information does not exist. ‘Ulysses’ by James Joyce is a fiction novel published on February 2, 1922, and the events within it are strictly set on June 16, 1904, a day known as Bloomsday. Any claims of a draft setting the story on April 28 or unpublished content from Joyce cannot be verified with factual historical data.
