Investing in literature …

… Dublin: Literature's Happy Hunting Ground - WSJ.com. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)


Literary Dublin will shine as never before this month. Bloomsday—the June 16th commemoration of James Joyce's "Ulysses," set entirely on a single Dublin day in 1904—gets a seismic kick this year. Joyce's works, which have been subject to restricted use by his estate, came out of European copyright in January and, for the first time, Dublin's Bloomsday celebration, a tradition now for decades, can quote "Ulysses" at will.

  1. Come now: happy hunting ground of minds that have lost their balance. Quote fair.
