I use to fancy myself a teacher — how funny that is — considering I needed to be reminded it was Bloomsday — I’m sure it’ll come around again — I did prefer FW — and my great love of Tom Pynchon Boy Time Traveler!
Not that I ever wanted to teach Pynchon or Joyce — rather it’s the motion that matters — recently we’ve had an influx of new subscribers — most left after a day or 2 — which is perfectly understandable
Joyce was accused of being all style — no substance — which I don’t agree with — He did teach — however — the unteachable — something gate(less) aspires to
The spirit moving across the waters is different for us all — so celebrate Bloomsday in your own way
Actually, I would like to thank the late Ned Durkin, who managed to phone me today to remind me. We often would get together on this day to drink a Jamesons or three and discuss literature and music.
I forgot myself! Happy Bloomsday and thanks for the reminder!
