Central Bank to sell Joyce coin despite error -... →
The bank said it regretted the error but added “the coin is an artistic representation of the author and text and not intended as a literal representation.
Leaving the error in makes it a better representation of Joyce’s writing IMO.

I thought college was going to be parties and “life lessons” but all it is so far is trying to figure out why an English major needs 5 quarters of a language and laughing at the jokes in Ulysses.
You need those semesters so you can (start to) read Finnegans Wake.
Best short story in Dubliners by James Joyce?

Now for my favorite passage from episode III of James Joyce’s ULYSSES.

Now for my favorite passage from episode II of James Joyce’s ULYSSES.

Obviously, because of how tumblr formats text posts, I’m not going to try and replicate the accurate length of the individual lines.
