Today is the 107th anniversary of that fine day when Leopold Bloom and Stephen Dedalus stepped out for their great adventures around Dublin in James Joyce’s Ulysses.
The world has never been the same since.
So read a page or two or more of that remarkable tale of awakening today. Or raise a toast, with a glass of Burgundy (Bloom’s drink with his gorgonzola-solution lunch) or a pint of Guinness or Bass Ale. Or just have a wander in the streets with an eye to the moment and all it « contains, » and just try saying « Yes! »
Happy Bloomsday
