Indeed, James Joyce wrote this novel and used the new literary technique of stream of consciousness. This narrative mode does not describe in a conventional manner the thoughts and emotions that are going through the mind of a character; they actually mimic the jumbled, repetitive  thought processes themselves, providing a supplementary layer of immersion in the literary work for the reader.

In this passage, the exacerbated repetition of the words “pull out his eyes, apologize” depict faithfully the negative and pervasive emotional impact that such words are having on the character’s mind as they reverberate in his mind.
