Professor Catherine Flynn of the University of California, Berkeley, joins Ulysses in 80 to explore the Nausicaa episode of James Joyce's Ulysses—the chapter that sparked one of the most famous censorship battles in literary history.
Editor of The Cambridge Centenary Ulysses and co-host of the U22 podcast, Catherine combines deep scholarship with an engaging and welcoming approach to Joyce. In this conversation, she shares insights into Nausicaa, reflects on why Ulysses continues to reward readers with each return, and reads a memorable passage from the novel.
Hosted by Mark Sanford Gross in Anchor Bay, California, and Cliona O'Farrelly in Dublin, Ulysses in 80 is a global reading journey through James Joyce's Ulysses—one day, one page, one conversation at a time.
