Bloomcast │Episode 1│Telemachus, Nestor, and Proteus

Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson, live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in 1922. 

Voilà! Here is episode one, in which they discuss: the reasons to read Ulysses (and how not to); Joyce's ambitions, gifts, and wiles; the historical, cultural, and biographical context of the novel; the women that brought his epic to life; as well as the first three episodes of the novel,, featuring Stephen Dedalus, Buck Mulligan, William Shakespeare, Leo Taxil, and the most famous nose-picking in Western literature. 

Please share your thoughts on the book and anything you’d like to hear us discuss: ulysses@shakespeareandcompany.com

A student of environmental policy at Sciences Po-Paris, Alice McCrum runs programming at the American Library in Paris. 

In between fits of Joycean nerdery, Dr. Lex Paulson is Executive Director of the School of Collective Intelligence at Université Mohammed VI Polytechnique in Morocco. An adopted Parisian, he teaches at Sciences Po-Paris and writes on the past and future of democracy.

Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company, Paris. He is the author of the novel Feeding Time, available in French as Défense de nourrir les vieux.

Pages 65 - 74 │Calypso, part I│Read by Eddie Izzard

As a dramatic actor, Eddie picked up a Tony nomination for best actor in 2003 for her performance in A Day In The Death Of Joe Egg on Broadway. She was seen recently acting alongside Dame Judi Dench, playing Edward VII to Judi’s Queen Victoria, in Stephen Frears’ Victoria & Abdul. 

Eddie is also one of the most challenging and respected comedians of her generation, having picked up two Emmys in 1999 and is now performing standup in four languages and has performed in forty five countries. Eddie has therefore been unusual in developing a stellar reputation as a dramatic actor and as a standup comedian.

On March 20, 2016, Izzard completed running 27 marathons in 27 days in South Africa as a tribute to Nelson Mandela and raised over £2.6 million ($3.3 million) for Sport Relief, a charity that helps improve the lives of people in impoverished countries. In 2009, Izzard ran 43 marathons in 51 days through England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland for charity and helped raise £1.8 million ($2.7 million) for Sport Relief. In January 2020 Eddie ran the first part of his 'Make Humanity Great Again' journey, an epic charity challenge running through 29 European capital cities over 29 days. And in January 2021 she ran 32 marathons in 31 days in COVID safe conditions on a treadmill at the Riverside Studios in London, again raising money for charity for the Make Humanity Great Again fund.

Pages 94 - 103 │Lotus Eaters, part II│Read by Kate Stables

Kate Stables, a Paris resident for sixteen years, is perhaps better known fronting her band thisisthekit. About 12 years ago she also started doing children's music and stories at Shakespeare and Company on the occasional Wednesday afternoon. 

This Is The Kit is the musical project of Paris-based, British musician Kate Stables along with Rozi Plain (bass/vocals), Neil Smith (guitar), Jesse D Vernon (guitar/keyboards) and Jamie Whitby-Coles (drum/vox). Listen as Kate rips forward with her hypnotic twang pattern and a voice of rare, unaffected beauty.

The band’s fifth album Off Off On (2020), following the critically acclaimed Moonshine Freeze (2017), sees Kate Stables working with producer Josh Kaufman – New York-based musician, Hold Steady collaborator and member of Bonny Light Horseman and Muzz.

Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson, live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in 1922. 

In episode two, your hosts provide zippy overviews of Calypso, Lotus Eaters and Hades; respond to listener comments, discuss the centenary; and mull over the arrival of Leopold Bloom (Who is he? Why do we follow him to the outhouse?), animal consciousness, reincarnation, and the point of interior monologue. Guided by Kevin Birmingham, Montaigne, Aristotle, Samuel Beckett, Homer, William James, and (as ever) Frank Budgen, they reflect too on how trauma lives within us, what Bloom can teach us about life and death, and the difference between fictional and historical narratives.

Please share your thoughts on the book and anything you’d like to hear us discuss: ulysses@shakespeareandcompany.com

A student of environmental policy at Sciences Po-Paris, Alice McCrum runs programming at the American Library in Paris. 

In between fits of Joycean nerdery, Dr. Lex Paulson is Executive Director of the School of Collective Intelligence at Université Mohammed VI Polytechnique in Morocco. An adopted Parisian, he teaches at Sciences Po-Paris and writes on the past and future of democracy.

Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company, Paris. He is the author of the novel Feeding Time, available in French as Défense de nourrir les vieux.

Pages 178 - 185 │Aeolus, part V│Read by Cressida Brown

Cress was awarded the National Theatre Studio’s Bulldog prinsep bursary in 2007. She directed Macbeth for Shakespeare and Company in 2017.

Work she is most proud of includes :

• Amphibians by Steve Water, inspired by interviews she conducted with former Olympic swimmers about ‘legacy’ in the run up to the 2012 Olympic games and staged in the derelict pool that had previously been hidden under the Bridewell Theatre stage. 
• Walking the Tightrope: the tension between art and politics by writers including Caryl Churchill, April DeAngelis, Timberlake Wertenbaker and Mark Ravenhill about boycott and censorship, staged site-specifically in the old Guardian newspaper offices before transferring to the House of Commons and then the Underbelly. 
• The Political History of Smack and Crack about the 1981 Moss Side riots and the heroin epidemic that then ensued under Thatcher. (Paines Plough Roundabout, Soho Theatre, UK tour of major venues and some prisons)
• Drawing Play a play where the audience turned up to an art masterclass armed with drawing boards and pens. They drew as well as watched, their pictures influencing the action played out before them (Yard Theatre)
• Septimus Bean and His Amazing Machine, where the foyer was magically transformed into a playground for the final scene (unicorn theatre)

Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson, live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in 1922. 

In episode three in they skip through main plot points of Aeolus and Lestrygonians, ask what these chapters might reveal about Joyce’s views on technology, discuss the role of rhetoric in shaping the novel, and turn to a Leonard Cohen for help in understanding the formal innovation that appears in these pages.

Please share your thoughts on the book and anything you’d like to hear us discuss: ulysses@shakespeareandcompany.com

Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson, live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in 1922. 

In episode four they begin by responding to a listener’s request to cast the Ulysses movie, then head to the Irish National Library to dissect Stephen’s Hamlet lecture and discuss whether you can separate the art from the artist, before returning to the streets of early-20th-century Dublin to question why Joyce might have considered it a “hostile environment”.

Please share your thoughts on the book and anything you’d like to hear us discuss: ulysses@shakespeareandcompany.com

A student of environmental policy at Sciences Po-Paris, Alice McCrum runs programming at the American Library in Paris. 

In between fits of Joycean nerdery, Dr. Lex Paulson is Executive Director of the School of Collective Intelligence at Université Mohammed VI Polytechnique in Morocco. An adopted Parisian, he teaches at Sciences Po-Paris and writes on the past and future of democracy.

Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company, Paris. He is the author of the novel Feeding Time, available in French as Défense de nourrir les vieux.

Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson, live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in 1922. 

In episode five, Lex regales the group with song as he unpicks the musicality of the Sirens episode, Alice ponders the relationship between music and alcohol, and Adam makes the case for Bloom and Chaplin’s Tramp being long-lost siblings.

Please share your thoughts on the book and anything you’d like to hear us discuss: ulysses@shakespeareandcompany.com

Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson, live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in 1922. 

In episode six, they discuss the obscenity trial that got Ulysses banned from the US for more than a decade, whether Joyce is a genius or a show-off (spoiler alert: he's both), animal consciousness (again!), and—ahem!—fun things you can do with your hands . . .

Please share your thoughts on the book and anything you’d like to hear us discuss: ulysses@shakespeareandcompany.com

A student of environmental policy at Sciences Po-Paris, Alice McCrum runs programming at the American Library in Paris. 

In between fits of Joycean nerdery, Dr. Lex Paulson is Executive Director of the School of Collective Intelligence at Université Mohammed VI Polytechnique in Morocco. An adopted Parisian, he teaches at Sciences Po-Paris and writes on the past and future of democracy.

Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company, Paris. He is the author of the novel Feeding Time, available in French as Défense de nourrir les vieux.

Bloomcast | Episode 7 | Circe

Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson, live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in 1922. 

In episode seven, after staggering through an attempt to summarise Joyce’s unstagable play, Lex unpicks the influences at work in this episode, Alice considers the impact of Freud on Joyce, and Adam finally tries to get to grips with the figure of the Arranger.

 Please share your thoughts on the book and anything you’d like to hear us discuss: ulysses@shakespeareandcompany.com

 A student of environmental policy at Sciences Po-Paris, Alice McCrum runs programming at the American Library in Paris. 

In between fits of Joycean nerdery, Dr. Lex Paulson is Executive Director of the School of Collective Intelligence at Université Mohammed VI Polytechnique in Morocco. An adopted Parisian, he teaches at Sciences Po-Paris and writes on the past and future of democracy.

Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company, Paris. He is the author of the novel Feeding Time, available in French as Défense de nourrir les vieux.

Welcome to Bloomcast, a ten-part plunge into James Joyce's Ulysses presented by Adam Biles, Alice McCrum, and Lex Paulson, live from Shakespeare and Company bookshop in Paris. Join them as they muddle through this radical, sublime, and often misunderstood novel first published one hundred years ago, in 1922. 

In episode eight, Adam helps us understand the strained, clumsy style of Eumaeus and investigates Bloom’s double-entry accounting; Alice alerts us to the one-eyedness of narrative and makes the case for the democratisation of art; while Lex praises the mood of Eumeaus and the innovation of universal basic income. In this episode, the fearless trio follow money, water and manufactured meat tins, as well as Stephen and Bloom, who finally spend a little time together.        

Please share your thoughts on the book and anything you’d like to hear us discuss: ulysses@shakespeareandcompany.com. 

A student of environmental policy at Sciences Po-Paris, Alice McCrum runs programming at the American Library in Paris. 

In between fits of Joycean nerdery, Dr. Lex Paulson is Executive Director of the School of Collective Intelligence at Université Mohammed VI Polytechnique in Morocco. An adopted Parisian, he teaches at Sciences Po-Paris and writes on the past and future of democracy.

Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company, Paris. He is the author of the novel Feeding Time, available in French as Défense de nourrir les vieux.

Marking the centenary of Ireland’s – and possibly the world’s – most famous novel, this joyful introductory guide opens up Ulysses to a whole new readership, offering insight into the literary, historical and cultural elements at play in James Joyce’s masterwork.

Both eloquent and erudite, this book is an initiation into the wonders of Joyce’s writing and of the world that inspired it, written by Daniel Mulhall, Ireland’s ambassador to the United States and an advocate for Irish literature around the world.

One hundred years on from that novel’s first publication, Ulysses: A Reader’s Odyssey takes us on a journey through one of the twentieth century’s greatest works of fiction. Exploring the eighteen chapters of the novel and using the famous structuring principle of Homer’s Odyssey as our guide, Daniel Mulhall releases Ulysses from its reputation of impenetrability, and shows us the pleasure it can offer us as readers.

*

Daniel Mulhall was born in Waterford. He has spent more than 40 years in Ireland’s diplomatic service, and is currently Ireland’s ambassador in the United States. He has written and lectured around the world on the subject of Irish literature, and in particular the work of James Joyce, and has worked tirelessly throughout his career to further the impact and reach of Irish writing around the world. 

In between fits of Joycean nerdery, Dr. Lex Paulson is Executive Director of the School of Collective Intelligence at Université Mohammed VI Polytechnique in Morocco. An adopted Parisian, he teaches at Sciences Po-Paris and writes on the past and future of democracy.
