“Mr Leopold Bloom ate with relish the inner organs of beasts and fowls. He liked thick giblet soup, nutty gizzards, a stuffed roast heart, liverslices fried with crustcrumbs, fried hencods’ roes. Most of all he liked grilled mutton kidneys which gave to his palate a fine tang of faintly scented urine.” ― James Joyce, Ulysses.
Bloomsday – June 16th – is an annual celebration among Joyce fans throughout the world, from Fuengirola to Melbourne. It is celebrated in at least sixty countries worldwide, but nowhere so imaginatively, of course, as in Dublin. The novel, Ulysses, by James Joyce recounts the hour-by-hour events of one day in Dublin – June 16, 1904 – as an ordinary Dubliner, Leopold Bloom, wends his way through the urban landscape, the odyssey of a modern-day Ulysses.

Bloomsday – 16 de junio – es una celebración anual entre los fanáticos de Joyce en todo el mundo, desde Fuengirola a Melbourne. Se celebra en sesenta países alrededor del mundo, pero en ninguna parte tan imaginativamente, por supuesto, como en Dublín. La novela Ulises, de James Joyce, narra los acontecimientos hora a hora de un día en Dublín – 16 de junio de 1904 – como un ordinario Dubliner, Leopold Bloom, serpentea su camino a través del paisaje urbano, la odisea de un moderno Ulisses.
“El señor Leopold Bloom comía con fruición los órganos internos de bestias y aves. Le gustaba la sopa de menudillos espesa, las mollejas de nuez, un corazón asado relleno, rodajas de hígado fritas concrustcrumbs, huevas hencods fritas. Sobre todo le gustaba los riñones a la parrilla de cordero que le dieron a su paladar un sabor fino de la orina ligeramente perfumada “. James Joyce, Ulisses.

A place which seems to be bursting at the seams with poets, novelists and playwrights, who all seem to have been gifted with an incredible innate sense of storytelling and drama. If you were to check the list of Nobel Prize winners since it’s inception, you’d find that Ireland ranks eighth in terms of how many it has produced over the years. Just what is it that makes the Irish so good at writing and the creative process? The first Irish foray into literature Culturally speaking, Ireland lays claim to the fact that it has one of the oldest forms of vernacular literature in the world, with only Greek or Latin able to match it. The Irish peoples were literate from the very earliest centuries, utilising a simple writing system called “Ogham” which was a way of communicating via inscriptions on little stone tablets. One of the very first proper written Irish wor...
