Bloomsday - a celebration of James Joyce's Ulysses

16 June marked the celebration of Bloomsday, the anniversary of modernist novel Ulysses by Irish author James Joyce. The day often includes re-enactments of Joyce’s 1922 text, Edwardian dress-up and pub crawls both in Ireland and across the world.

Drawing on discussions from Irish actor Frank Grimes and University College London Joyce specialist Scarlett Baron, this podcast episode reminisces on the legacy of Ulysses, and how the celebrations of Bloomsday immortalises both the text and its author, 103 years after publication.Presented and produced by Amelia Young.
