James Joyce novelist and poet is considered to be one of the most influential writers of the 20th century. His best-known novel Ulysses published in 1922 is ‘a day in the life of Leopold Bloom’ – but it is also so much more!

The story begins around 8.00am on the 16th June 1904 in Dublin and follows a series of incidents and encounters by Bloom an advertising salesman. His life is intertwined with many others as he makes his way around the City visiting the butchers, the post office, the Church, library, attending the funeral of a friend and even having lunch at a pub!
