Happy centenary Bloomsday to one and all!
Reading one page per day sounds rather enjoyable. Especially via RSS. (I just wish there were annotations a la Pepys’ Diary.)
Perhaps you’d like a postcard for the occasion? Or some music?
And, of course, no Bloomsday is complete without a visit to Ulysses for Dummies.
Oh, and by the way, the Blue Pyramid Book Quiz says I’m Ulysses. How apt:
You’re Ulysses!
by James Joyce
Most people are convinced that you don’t make any sense, but compared to what else you could say, what you’re saying now makes tons of sense. What people do understand about you is your vulgarity, which has convinced people that you are at once brilliant and repugnant. Meanwhile you are content to wander around aimlessly, taking in the sights and sounds of the city. What you see is vast, almost limitless, and brings you additional fame. When no one is looking, you dream of being a Greek folk hero.
Take the Book Quiz at the Blue Pyramid.
FYI — Google has a special image for today.
Whoah. I thought mine was heady with the Sound and the Fury.
