Bloomcast | Episode 9 | Penelope

Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's
Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson,
live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as
they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often
misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in
1922. 


 


In episode nine, Alice, Lex and Adam finish reading Ulysses...
