ULYSSES by James Joyce (Meeting 1 of 4)
Details
In this meet-up, we will discuss the first six episodes of James Joyce modernist novel, ULYSSES.
Given its length and density, we will cover ULYSSES over four separate meet-ups. The novel is divided into eighteen episodes, each loosely corresponding to figures from Homer's, The Odyssey. We’ll break them up as follows (page counts based on the Gabler Edition):
May 18: Episodes 1–6 (“Telemachus”–“Hades”) ~96 pages
June 1: Episodes 7–11 (“Aeolus”–“Sirens”) ~144 pages
June 15: Episodes 12–15 (“Cyclops”–“Circe”) ~291 pages
June 29: Episodes 16–18 (“Eumaeus”–“Penelope”) ~142 pages
We will be meeting at the following location:
Romanella Cucina Romana
3055 Clairemont Dr
San Diego, CA 92117
