Set on June 16th 1904, the author SAT cannily assigned his novel its own annual feast day. Peter SAT White travelled to Dublin on Bloomsday last year to meet the SAT celebrants who enthusiastically enact sections of the book. SAT Among them - resplendent in boater and blazer - is Irish SAT Senator David Norris, a founder of Dublin's Joyce Centre, SAT explaining how an apparently random string of consonants SAT precisely captures the sound of a breaking wave. But there's SAT also the writer and Irish Times journalist John Waters who's SAT courageous enough to confess that he's only ever managed to SAT get as far as page 35 of Ulysses. "It's more important to SAT Irish tourism", he says, "than to readers". SAT What Peter White realises is that whilst the text of Ulysses SAT might be dense and difficult on the page, it is in fact SAT perfectly suited to the ear, as radio - filled with gleeful SAT linguistic tricks, puns and jokes and stream of SAT consciousness bawdiness. SAT Having read Ulysses in Braille, Peter finds out that Joyce SAT was long troubled by eye problems, and that the author's SAT eyesight worsened considerably whilst writing the book when SAT exiled in Zurich. As a blind man himself, Peter is SAT interested to hear how Joyce uses blindness and myopia to SAT great symbolic effect in his work - evoking the whole of SAT Dublin society by emphasising all the senses - sound, touch SAT and smell as much as sight. SAT Producer Mark Smalley. SAT James Joyce's Ulysses SAT SAT 16:30 Dermot Bolger - Martha's Streets b03vcpd8 (Listen) SAT 4 Extra Debut. A woman recalls how James Joyce's Ulysses SAT profoundly influenced her life for the better. Read by SAT Doreen Keogh. SAT SAT 16:45 James Joyce's Ulysses b03vcpdb (Listen) SAT James Joyce's Ulysses, Episode 1 SAT 16th June 1904: Stephen Dedalus and Leopold Bloom's Dublin SAT days unwind. With Henry Goodman, Andrew Scott and Stephen SAT Rea. SAT 8am: 'Stately plump' Buck Mulligan calls Stephen Dedalus to SAT the top of the Martello tower overlooking Dublin Bay - and SAT so begins James Joyce's celebrated account of the 16th June SAT 1904. The combined stories of Stephen and Leopold Bloom as SAT they meander through the city. Dramatised by Robin Brooks. SAT 8.15am: Stephen Dedalus breakfasts with Mulligan and the SAT Englishman Haines before walking out along the strand to the SAT swimming place at Forty Foot Hole. SAT 10am: Stephen Dedalus collects his wages from Headmaster SAT Deasy, who wants Stephen to deliver a letter about the SAT recent outbreak of Foot and Mouth disease to the editor of SAT the Evening Telegraph.

Bloom, we are told, 'eats with relish the SAT inner organs of beasts and fowls' and cooks himself a pork SAT kidney for breakfast. While Molly receives a letter from SAT concert promoter Hugh 'Blazes' Boylan who has arranged to SAT visit her later in the day, Bloom prepares to attend Paddy SAT Dignam's funeral at Glasnevin cemetery. SAT 11am: Stephen walks on Sandymount Strand before visiting the SAT offices of the Evening Telegraph, where he catches a glimpse SAT of advertising salesman Leopold Bloom.

SAT SAT 18:00 James Joyce's Ulysses b03vcpdd (Listen) SAT James Joyce's Ulysses, Episode 2 SAT 16th June 1904: Stephen explains his theory of Hamlet, then SAT Bloom argues with the bigoted 'Citizen'.

SAT 2pm: Stephen tries to get commissioned for an article at the SAT National Library, while Leopold Bloom takes lunch at the SAT Ormond Hotel and listens to Simon Dedalus and Benjamin SAT Dollard sing at the piano. SAT Mid-afternoon: Hugh 'Blazes' Boylan is on his way to his SAT adulterous assignation with Molly Bloom in Eccles Street. SAT 5pm: Bloom gets into an argument with the 'Citizen' which SAT climaxes in mock-heroic battle. Bloom makes a dignified SAT retreat and his opponent flings a biscuit tin after him. SAT This episode is narrated by an anonymous crony of the SAT 'Citizen', an anti-semitic Nationalist bigot. Repulsive as SAT he is, he provides an opportunity for Bloom to show his true SAT heroism by arguing against prejudice and preaching a SAT doctrine of love and understanding. SAT Dramatised by Robin Brooks. SAT SAT 19:20 James Joyce's Ulysses b03vcpdg (Listen) SAT James Joyce's Ulysses, Episode 3 SAT 8pm, 16th June 1904: Bloom spies on Gerty, then rescues SAT Stephen from a brawl outside a brothel.

So he SAT stands on the beach at nightfall watching Gerty MacDowell SAT enjoy the fireworks. SAT Meanwhile, at the maternity hospital in Holles Street, Mina SAT Purefoy is still struggling - after three days - to give SAT birth.
