Bloomsday Tour: The Language of Flowers, Botanic Gardens, D9

Come join me on a botanic odyssey through the flowers, plants, and blooms which inspired James Joyce's work.

Tour Date: 16th of June at 2pm
Meeting: Inside the Visitor Centre for 1.45pm.
Tickets: Please pre book your ticket before you RSVP.
Tickets can be purchased for €5 on Eventbrite.
Once you mention in the Meetup Comments that your ticket is booked, you will be moved from the waiting list to the Going List.

From the ancient elms of Finnegans Wake to the floral dictionaries of Ulysses, this tour will illuminate a fascination with plants that accompanied Joyce throughout his life and has received little critical comment.
This tour will also delve into how Joyce appropriates and interprets some of the literary history of Glasnevin, examining it's associations with figures like Jonathan Swift and Thomas Tickell.

I look forward to seeing you there.
