Today we harvested many olive trees in Ramallah. Wothout Israeli and international volunteers, the Palestinian farmers are prohibited from harvesting their own orchards. This is their livelihood, and we stand in solidarity with them.

In which, we discuss Buck Mulligan's role as a Shakespearean fool within Ulysses, tormenting poor Stephen Dedalus.

I'm beginning my research phase for "Sirens" and I'm not sure what to cover in this episode. I'm considering covering it in a single episode and then moving onto "Cyclops," which I have A LOT to talk about. What would you want me to cover from "Sirens?"

Leave your thoughts in the comments!

The whispers of doubt dance around the genius of Shakespeare. Each play feels like a tapestry woven from many voices, urging us to explore the depths of collaboration and creativity. #booksky #books
Ep. 163 - The Spirit of Reconciliation

Shakespeare couldn't have possibly written all those plays all by himself... right?

A small fire at the front of the bookshop was started last night after rubbish bags that were awaiting collection were set on fire. The guards don’t have reason at this time to believe it was a targeted attack. Thankfully the damage was limited and everyone is safe. We are open for business as usual

We're talking Giacomo Joyce, James Joyce's only story set outside of Dublin. We talk about the poetry of the work, how it influenced his later work, and of course the controversy surrounding this work

Being on social media is fine but if it’s getting in the way of you doing deep reading and deep thinking, then your balance of how you spend your time is off

Lots of interesting threads here and none of them are a substitute for reading a good book or essay

Thanks for the tip. I will check that out!
Episode 160: Anne Hath a Way

Stephen Dedalus would have you think that Shakespeare's wife Anne was an Elizabethan Yoko Ono. Is he right?

(Spoiler: No, he's not. Also, Yoko didn't break up the Beatles.)

No, not that Anne Hathaway. The Shakespearean one.
