I highly recommend the podcast Re:Joyce by Frank Delaney if you're at all interested in Ulysses.

He reads Ulysses and discusses it - sometimes an episode is dedicated to just one sentence, sometimes a paragraph.

Tragic that he died before completing it and that his website has gone untended.

Thank you for posting this.

I had not appreciated the scale of this. There are 368 episodes, spread over almost seven years.

> an episode is dedicated to just one sentence

> he died before completing

It appears he started on Bloomsday 2010, and in episode 321, from 2016, he remarked in an introduction that he planned to finish it within ten years from then – which Wikipedia cites as evidence of it being "planned" to run to 2026, whilst completely missing the bit where he’s really talking about an there being an extra episode once a month and jocularly remarks that it is to reduce the weekly podcast from 25 remaining years to ten.

I hadn’t heard of this until today. This is amazing.
