Voyager to the Magic Land


" The voyage 

of discovery

 is not in seeking 

new landscapes 

but in having 

new eyes. "

Happy Bloomsday, June 16th!


The events of James Joyce's 

groundbreaking novel 

Ulysses 


 all take place 

on one day: 16 June 1904

which has become 

an annual celebration 

in Dublin, 

and among Joyce fans 

throughout the world.


Oh,

and it's also

my birthday.

Perfect for a writer!

Thanks For Visiting!

Happy Happy Birthday to you!!
Very apt that date to share (and the woman responsible for publishing Joyce's Ulysses, Sylvia Beach, spent part of her childhood years and is now buried here in Princeton!:)

Oh, love that 1st quote especially and the bright shots as always.
