Happy 130th, James Joyce.
Happy 90th publication anniversary, Ulysses.
You made me confess the fears that I have. But I will tell you also what I do not fear. I do not fear to be alone or to be spurned for another or to leave whatever I have to leave. And I am not afraid to make a mistake, even a great mistake, a lifelong mistake and perhaps as long as eternity too.
I am finally going to read Ulysses this year (I’m hoping by saying this publicly I will have added motivation to actually do it).
Yep, re-reading this in June.
