Happy Bloomsday to all, and welcome to all of our new readers! We’ve had quite a bit going on in the last week, and we’ll have a lot going on today, as well. Rob will be interviewed on air on NPR’s All Things Considered (U.S.) and Newstalk 106-108 FM (Ireland), and we’ll have stories in the Washington Post, The Guardian, and a whole host of other places.
Rob will be at Bloomsday on Broadway in New York, and the rest of us will be at the Rosenbach Museum and Library’s Bloomsday celebration in Philadelphia, where Mike will be reading from “Sirens”. If you’re in either of those areas, come on out and join in the fun.
We will be running a series of posts all day, beginning with a great piece from M. Thomas Gammarino, author of BIG IN JAPAN: A GHOST STORY on the first line of ULYSSES, and we’ll be tweeting (in varying states of sobriety) from both New York and Philadelphia.
Thanks to everyone for reading, and enjoy the day!
Thank you ! Hats off !
Pascal, thank you!!
I just did an interview with someone from French television this morning and gave them your name. Your tireless work on translating Mike’s Readers’ Guide for a French-speaking audience is, to my mind, one of the great rewards of the site. We really should talk about mirroring the comic in French somehow…
Happy BloomsDay, everyone!
Thanks! We are launching our year long _Ulysses_ reading club here in Evanston IL tonight (at the Celtic Knot Pub, appropriately enough).Anyone in the Chicago north suburban area is welcome to join us!
