#OTD in 1941 – James Joyce, considered by many to be one of the most important modern authors in English because of his revolutionary approach to the novel, dies in Zurich.
When I die Dublin will be written in my heart. –James Joyce
James Joyce published ‘Portrait of the Artist’ in 1916 and caught the attention of Ezra Pound. With ‘Ulysses,’ Joyce perfected his stream-of-consciousness style and became a literary celebrity. The explicit content of his prose brought about landmark legal decisions on obscenity.
Joyce’s relationship with his native country was a complex…

Here Comes Everybody's Karma (4)

Lyons quotes Wilder as saying:

Inching forward with “Finnegans Wake” — The Argumentative Old Git (Reblog)
Ah – the plans one makes for retirement! So many things I had wanted to do, but had told myself I would do once I was retired, when I no longer had the pressure of work to contend with, that day-to-day grind. What one doesn’t take into account when making such plans are the increasing […]

Here Comes Everybody's Karma
After being absent on this forum for a couple of months, I can now resurface with a new project that has been absorbing all my time and energy. I’m planning to launch this novel during the Bloomsday Festival in Dublin between June 10th and 17th.

I’ve gone and copied the entire contents of my anti-novel Blue Blue City onto a WordPress post.
I did it because I was curious. I wanted to see if a single blogpost could handle the text, and it looks like it can. The next thing to know is, what search terms will people need to find this text? And will it make any of them happy?
If I were you, I’d ignore this post. Live your mundane lives, make…

Olwen Fouéré profiled by RTE on the Arts Programme, The Works
When I first returned to Ireland, 30-odd years ago, the very, veryyoung Olwen was already the most admired and most talked about actor of our generation. She was an artist (not always considered a good thing by the generation of actors then ruling the stages of The Abbey and The Gate) and inspired her peers to take risks, to find new ways of communing with their audience. She was always…
