“Think you're escaping and run into yourself. Longest way round is the shortest way home.”
― James Joyce, Ulysses
Thank you Malcom for these wonderful insights into James Joyce’s Dublin odyssey, and to be mindful, as it is recorded in Ulysses that ...
‘Love loves to love love.’
I seem to remember an episode of MASH where Hot-Lips sneers at Major Burns "It's nice to be nice to those who are nice?" Now I think they must have filched that from Ulysses!
I've wanted to read "Ulysses" ever since I finished "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man" a few years back. I think now is a good time to pick it up and now that I know Stephen Dedalus is in Ulysses as well I'm eager to pay him another visit!
James is Stephen ☘️
Thank you for this. I bought this book at a used bookstore for no good reason. I had never even heard of it or the author before. I flipped through and read the editors forward and was overwhelmed and confused and have been avoiding it for three years now. But what you said makes it seem approachable.
Cheers, another comfy video
I read it in high school and I'm reading it right now, it's like I never read it. I used a little trick I recommend to everyone, first read A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and it's like fine sequel. As much is it hard to read in same time it's reading so fast, just like our minds go fast :)
I am a Joyce...well a NZ one...feel a closeness tho...thanks for this and I have books coming, being sent to me so I can enjoy after watching your so wonderful presentations...thanks Malcolm...
You are so welcome!
The hammering in the background was at once an example of the "skittish...rather shallow banter" and a symbol of being "on the verge of the transfiguration"
Hi! I must confess to having a love/hate relationship with this book which I've deep-read twice... Parts I love and parts I dislike. It's interesting that you should quote from the first 'episode' as I've always thought I'd love the work more if it had been Stephen Dedalus' day that the book narrated - rather than that of Leopold Bloom. Great video, as always! 🙏
You accent reminds me of James Mason. Delightful.
Malcolm, you mentioned in this that it was the Sacrament that brought you back into the faith. I have heard you discuss your Lewisian return to Christ a number of times, but I have never heard it described with such an emphasis on the role of the Eucharist. I’d truly love to hear more about this, specifically how the ‘Terrene Body’ was instrumental in that process. Any chance it could be folded into a future spell in the library?
thanks. I have now told the story more fully in my new book with DLT 'My Theology: The Word within the words'
One day I should read Ulysses
Couldn't make sense of Ulysses 53 years ago.Thank you for enlightening me.BTW is that George trying to get in,or Maggie chopping up the sirloin?
Lol ... I think there’s some builders building is what I thought 💭?
its some builders hammering the floorboards into the extension we are having built!
I kept taking out my ear plugs because I thought it was my neighbours banging at midnight. Now I’ll go back and give my full attention
George is actually working on the extension; never underestimate a dog's abilities
Thank you for this, Malcolm! This is probably terrible TH-cam etiquette, but I shall humbly proceed...what's the best way to contact you for a possible podcast interview? Thank you - Leah

The most important thing about February the 2nd is that it is the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord, or Candlemas.
