There are numerous characters running in and out and around the events of this one day in Dublin, and we’re going to try our best to give you some understanding of who they are. Of course, we’ll need some help with that.
You can click the chapter thumbnails to view character profiles by the chapters in which they appear, or click the individual thumbnails in the complete character list below for commentary on each character. You are encouraged to add your own commentary and discussion, as well. We’d love to hear any “casting suggestions” you have along the way, so feel free to add links or descriptions on the unfinished portraits. We’ll also link these portraits to Mike’s Readers’ Guide pages to help people get a better feel of who’s who.
Hint: The portraits might make good avatars. Just right click, and save…
