In Season 3, Episode 2 of Ulysses in 80, Mark Sanford Gross and Cliona O'Farrelly welcome Robert Nicholson—writer, curator, and one of Dublin's most respected guides to the world of James Joyce.
For nearly fifty years, Robert has been walking the streets of Dublin with readers from around the world, bringing Joyce's city to life one step at a time.
In this lively conversation, he leads us through the streets and stories of Joyce's Dublin, from funeral processions and quiet laneways to cattle in the streets, hidden corners of the city, and the people and places that still echo through the pages of Ulysses.
Drawing on decades of experience guiding readers through Joyce's world, Robert reflects on Dublin then and now, the enduring appeal of Ulysses, and the pleasures of discovering the city through Bloom's wandering footsteps.
Robert Nicholson is the author of The Ulysses Guide: Tours Through Joyce's Dublin and the video guide James Joyce's Dublin: The Ulysses Tour.
Ulysses in 80 is hosted by Cliona O'Farrelly and Mark Sanford Gross.
