James Joyce fans, and other literati fans: Happy Bloomsday, June 16.
Is anyone reading Ulysses in your town? Public performance?
(We’re at the Clinton Library today; no Joyce, I’ll bet.)
Bloomsday:
- Wall Street Journal blog note, featuring a schedule of some events, worldwide
- How did Leopold Bloom get home? Irish Times reports a computer may have solved the problem; Rory McCann did the legwork — here’s the post at his blog, claiming it is, indeed possible to cross Dublin without passing a pub (but why would one want to?) (This is a great geography problem, and McCann has brought some good wiles to bear on the issue — is there a geography quiz in here? Maybe not for high school . . . )







I’m not reading but there is a Joyce conference in our auditorium right now.
