Stately and Plump: Happy Bloomsday!
Some fun links for Bloomsday:
- Boston.com’s Brainiac blog has a post where you can see Marilyn Monroe reading Ulysses, and hear a recording of Marcella Riordan reading Molly’s soliloquy from the end of the book (and read along).
- An amazing (and rare) old clip of Joyce reading from Finnegans Wake is here. And description, with text to read along, here.
- And last but not least, from our own collection, the film “Bloomsday Cabaret,” streaming online!
