  • In this special episode, the Bloomcasters take on their trickiest task yet : criticizing one of their own. 


    Adam Biles’ “Beasts of England”, a canny and hilarious sequel to George Orwell’s “Animal Farm”, has received rave reviews and is already heading into translation in France and India -- but is it really any good?


    Bloomcasters Alice and Lex take the reins, pushing Adam into the darkest corners of his fascination with farmyards and political arcana. How does one pen a sequel to a classic? What can satire show us about our dysfunctional age that no other genre can? Which pig is Boris Johnson, and does it matter in the least?


    The gloves are off the trotters, and the true beasts are revealed. We hope you enjoy it.

  • Our Bloomcasters reconvene on January 6th, “Joycension Day”, to discuss The Dead : the final piece in Joyce’s Dubliners, described by T. S. Eliot as "one of the greatest short stories ever written". 


    Leaning heavily as always on the wisdom of honorary Bloomcasters Declan Kiberd and Colm Toibin, they cover orchestrated dinner parties, ego death, the circularity of human life, the music of words, and much more.


    Carrying forth a Bloomcast tradition, they also play a festive game, populating competing dinner parties with characters from Dubliners and Ulysses.


    Happy New Year (and Joycension Day)!

  • A few weeks back we had our dear friend, Bloomsday MC, and eminent Bloomcaster Prof. Lex Paulson as a guest in the library to give a talk on Cicero, drawing on his book Cicero and the People’s Will: Philosophy and Power at the End of the Roman Republic, recently published by Cambridge University Press.


    Anyone who has listened to Bloomcast will know that Lex is not just a great speaker, but also a great thinker, and this talk is both an exquisite example of his work, and an insight into some of the ideas that shaped his particular and insightful approach to James Joyce’s masterwork.


    We were so pleased to have Lex with us that evening, and are delighted to be able to release this talk on Bloomsday. Enjoy!

  • 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 this (almost) final episode, recorded live on Bloomsday at the American Library in Paris, Alice, Lex and Adam reflect on their Joycean odyssey and answer such frivolous questions as “If you had to live in one of the episodes for eternity, which would it be?” and “Which line from the book would you like tattooed on your forearm?”


    We will record one final episode dedicated to listener questions. If you have anything you’d like us to reflect upon, please send your questions to: [email protected]

  • What did James Joyce’s Ulysses do to literature, and how has literature reacted since? What is its role in the contemporary literary landscape? In celebration of the book’s centennial and in anticipation of Bloomsday, novelist and scholar Colm Tóibín spoke to Alice McCrum on May 27, 2022 at the American Library in Paris with a live audience both in person and on Zoom about the history, publication, and legacy of the book to which, in the words of T.S. Eliot, “we are all indebted, and from which none of us can escape.”


    Colm Tóibín is a novelist, essayist, and critic. He is the author of many works, including The Blackwater Lightship (1996), shortlisted for the Booker Prize; The Master (2004), awarded the 2006 International Dublin Literary Award and the 2004 Los Angeles Times Novel of the Year, and Brooklyn (2009), awarded the Costa Novel Award. Tóibín received the Bob Hughes Lifetime Achievement Award in 2019 and the David Cohen Prize for Literature in 2021.

  • Recorded at Hay Festival, Hay-on-Wye,  Tuesday 31 May 2022

    “Ulysses is going to make my place famous,” Sylvia Beach wrote to James Joyce when she made the decision to publish his novel, written over seven years and describing the events of a single day in Dublin. To celebrate a hundred years of this literary masterpiece, five devoted readers share their thoughts on reading a novel that has a reputation for being challenging, while maintaining a cult-like following as one of the defining books of modernism. ​Xiaolu Guo is a writer, Adam Biles is Literary Director at Shakespeare and Company in Paris and John Mitchinson is publisher at Unbound. They talk to writer and journalist Sinéad Gleeson.

  • In this special episode Alice, Lex and Adam geek out with the man who—Joyce aside—has probably been cited more than any other in our podcast: Professor Declan Kiberd. Professor Kiberd is the author of Ulysses and Us: The Art of Everyday Living, as well as the introduction to the Penguin Classics official partner edition.

    *

    In Ulysses and Us, Declan Kiberd argues that James Joyce's Ulysses offers a humane vision of a more tolerant and decent life under the dreadful pressures of the modern world. As much a guide to contemporary life as it is virtuoso work of literary criticism, Ulysses and Us offers revolutionary insights to the scholar and the first-time reader alike.

    Leopold Bloom, the half-Jewish Irishman who is the hero of James Joyce's Ulysses, teaches the young Stephen Dedalus (modelled on Joyce himself) how he can grow and mature as an artist and an adult human being. Bloom has learned to live with contradictions, with anxiety and sexual jealousy, and with the rudeness and racism of the people he encounters in the city streets, and in his apparently banal way sees deeper than any of them. He embodies an intensely ordinary kind of wisdom, Kiberd argues, and in this way offers us a model for living well, in the tradition of the literature upon which Joyce drew in writing Ulysses, such as Homer, Dante and the Bible.


    Declan Kiberd is the author of Inventing Ireland: The Literature of the Modern Nation, which won the Irish Times Prize in 1995. It is one of the most influential works on Irish culture published in the last twenty years. His Irish Classics came out in 2000 and won the prestigious Lannan Prize in the USA. He is the Professor of Anglo-Irish Literature at University College Dublin and is a widely respected broadcaster, critic and reviewer.
