Bloomsday at the EUF!

Bloomsday is the day on which James Joyce’s Ulysses takes place. Set over the course of one day — June 16th, 1904 — every hour is represented by a chapter (or episode) of the novel. This novel is the story of Leopold Bloom, his daily life and tribulations, the quotidian reality of jobs, social awkwardness, flawed nationalism, relationships, and different aspects of personal loss. 

Today, Bloomsday is celebrated all over the world through dramatizations, the singing of songs, urban pilgrimages, and the consumption of kidneys, gorgonzola, burgundy, and cider at their designated hours.

Our early Bloomsday at the EUF will be a little different, but just as Joycean! It will feature a culinary odyssey through Ulysses, with multiple chefs showcasing their tasty interpretations of quotations from the novel. We will also have dramatic scenes from Joyce's work and live music.
