So gratified to know that my fun little project helped another artist in his own efforts to share #Ulysses with the world. At this time last year, I was making final tweaks to the page proofs; it feels surreal that my work is out in readers' hands as a book!

20 years ago, I enjoyed my first #Bloomsday at Shakespeare & Company in Paris. I was confused and enthralled by this novel everyone was talking about. Couldn't have imagined the ways in which #Ulysses would shape and enrich my life. #stillconfused #stillenthralled

-- James Joyce is the finest writer ever to use the English language. -- That's so, says Martin, or so they allege. -- Who made that allegation? says Alf. -- I, says Hastings, I'm the alligator. #reJoyce #Bloomsday

What fun to meet with this group of intrepid readers and do a bit of "looking back" in the text of Ulysses to make sense of little snatches of language that reappear in "Sirens." Thanks for the invitation!

A few months ago, I started a new job at the Library of Congress. I've started writing posts about the stuff I'm learning. Here's the first one: blogs.loc.gov/bibliomania/20…

Here's post #2 in my series on how old books were made. I explain the process of mass-producing individual pieces of moveable type (the innovation conventionally credited to Gutenberg). It revolutionized human communication. blogs.loc.gov/bibliomania/20…

The next installment of my series on how old books were made is posted. This one details how compositors would build the text out of individual pieces of type. #bookhistory #composition #oldbooks blogs.loc.gov/bibliomania/20…

Happy Gatsby Day! F. Scott Fitzgerald's great novel was published 100 years ago today, but it was not always celebrated among the Great American Novels. blogs.loc.gov/bibliomania/20…
