What is Bloomsday?
Bloomsday marks the day — June 16, 1904 — that Leopold Bloom walked through Dublin in James Joyce’s epic novel Ulysses. Our festival takes place this year from May 30 through June 16.
Where, the mile end
Ou quand le vent boréal souffle une influence sur le poète. Du premier poème ‘Steel skin’ où on y regarde un hiver qui s’étend de Dublin jusqu’au bord du Mississipi et encore, au second poème ‘Looped’ où le fil du nord laisse des traces de vent glacial.
A Review of Paul Auster’s 4321
It was by happenstance that I picked up a copy of Paul Auster’s latest novel 4321 (2017) a couple of weeks ago at a McGill University “take a book leave a book” site. As expected from Paul Auster, the novel is hilarious, genius, meta and highly readable. But what was unexpected was that I found myself reading a re-imagined version of Ulysses.
