Bloomsday
Yesterday, June 16, was Bloomsday, when the Irish, Irish descendants, and Irish lovers, celebrate James Joyce’s Ulysses – an unfathomable work describing the events of one day – 16 June 1904 – in Dublin.
If you don’t have a spare 732 hours (one hour per page) to read Ulysses, the New York State Writers Institute has a short explanation, including a 4-minute film using Joyce’s words.
