Celebrating Joyce. Or Just Sitting Around Drinking. Whichever.

The fellas who make up Denver’s James Joyce Reading Society are devoted to the author’s work. But they’re also quite devoted to Guinness beer, Irish whiskey, and talking politics, so you’ll excuse them if they don’t always get around to the reading. Of course, Joyce would probably approve of such meandering loyalty, and as the 100th anniversary of the date that was the setting of Ulysses approaches, the Bloomsday revelries are set to begin not only in Denver, but in 60 countries worldwide.
