Overview
Did you know that James Joyce’s groundbreaking novel Ulysses was inspired entirely by a single day in Dublin, Ireland - June 16th, 1904? Considered one of the most important works of modernist literature, Ulysses not only changed the world of books forever but also cemented Dublin’s place in literary history. Today, you can walk in the footsteps of Leopold Bloom on Dublin’s cobbled streets, explore the James Joyce Centre, and experience the vibrant celebrations of Bloomsday each June 16th. There’s no better time to discover the city that brought Ulysses to life.
