Happy Bloomsday.
I am on the verge of finishing " Love in the Time of Cholera" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, an overly long, boring and not very well written book.
Next up - Ulysses.
Civer me, I’m going in.
Happy Bloomsday to all. Might hit Davy Byrne’s myself.

Read that a while ago Fitzy. Bored me stupid but when you know it’s a classic ye have to persist with it I suppose. It’s put me off attacking 100 Years of Solitude.
Good luck with Ulysses.
I reside close to Sandycove so there’ll be plenty of Joyceheads around tomorrow to giggle at.

Read the last line of that piece there:
How sick, sick, sick I am of Dublin! he wrote in 1909. It is the city of failure, of rancour and of unhappiness.
