Happy Bloomsday, the day (June 16) that James Joyce immortalized in his epic novel, “Ulysses.”

If you have the evening free and are in the mood, this might be a good time to seek out a local “Ulysses” reading or related pub crawl. The L.A. Times offers up a short list of gatherings around the U.S. For more on the annual rite, check out this New York Times story.

And look at that: Even Twitter is lighting up with posts about Bloomsday.

Hi from Dublin.
I’m lucky enough to hear a Ulysses reading on my local radio station Radio Telefis Eireann (R.T.E.)
I believe many countries around the world can pick up this station with a good radio.
Why not plan a trip to Dublin for an amazing real life experience!
Cheers Brian
