Is this in fact the third year that they’ve read Ulysses, or is it the third year that they’ve tried to read it before soon giving up? And is that a Miss Marple manikin in the corner, or is it the desiccated remains of Mary Worth?
Ulysses chronicles the appointments and encounters of the itinerant Leopold Bloom in Dublin in the course of an ordinary day, 16 June 1904…….can’t wait!!!!
Batiuk is being unusually cruel to his characters today. Not only are they going to attempt to read and discuss “Ulysses,” they have two underage kids in the group, so there will not be any wine.

Maybe this will be the third try will be the charm and we actually get past the first chapter.

One of Molly Bloom’s soliloquies in James Joyce’s epic novel ‘Ulysses’ features a sentence of 4,491 words.

Mary Worth showed up but she’s for once rendered speechless. She even forgot her muffins.

I’m surprised it isn’t “Lisa’s Story”. Otherwise, who is that ghoul all the way off to the right?

I believe Sylvia Beach (over on the far right, clutching a purse as if she really doesn’t want to be here) is a cardboard cut-out.
I mean, an INTENTIONAL cardboard cut-out, unlike the rest of the people in the frame.

Looks like someone is enamored with the “Nausicaa” passage. Porn for old people.
