Journalist and Joyce scholar Senan Molony delivers a talk out of this world about astronomy and James Joyce's novel Ulysses. Free event, booking essential.
Journalist and Joyce scholar Senan Molony unveils a striking new celestial discovery hidden within James Joyce’s Ulysses.
What if the blazing trail of Halley’s Comet streaks not only through the heavens, but through the very pages of the 20th century’s greatest novel? Join us as Molony explores how Joyce’s fascination with astronomy, astrology, and cosmic symbolism illuminates the intertwined fates of Leopold Bloom, Molly, and Blazes Boylan—each orbiting their destinies like heavenly bodies in an eternal dance.
Timed to coincide with the arrival of a new interstellar visitor to our solar system in late 2025, this lecture invites you to look upward — and inward.
Senan Molony is a journalist of the Irish Independent and Sunday Independent.
