In this episode of Ulysses in 80, Mark Sanford Gross and Cliona O’Farrelly are joined by Daniel Mulhall, former Irish Ambassador to the United States and author of Ulysses: A Reader’s Odyssey.
Mulhall comes to Ulysses first and foremost as a reader—one who has returned to Joyce’s novel throughout a diplomatic career that took him around the world. The conversation moves from his own roots in Ulysses to Ireland then and now, identity, tolerance, and why he believes Joyce’s century-old novel remains a novel for modern times.
And, as the U80 journey reaches Ithaca, there is also the question of coming home—both in Ulysses and after a lifetime spent representing Ireland abroad.
Ulysses for Everyone.
Ulysses in 80 A global reading of James Joyce’s Ulysses, moving through the book together over eighty days.
