"-Look at him, says he. Breen. He's traipsing all round Dublin with a postcard"
(Ulysses 12.257)
Via Aida Yared's incredible Joyce Images, an illustrated Ulysses using period documents and ephemera.
I leave tomorrow for a Glen Hansard-inspired trip to Dublin, Ireland. I look forward to a Joycean wander around the city punctuated by cups of tea and pints of beer. Surely, there will be a stop at the Guinness Storehouse. Remodeled by RKD Architects in 2002, it boasts an atrium shaped like a pint glass and topped by viewing/drinking deck with the best views of Dublin. Sláinte, indeed.
More reports in January. Happy New Year.
