James Joyce’s Birthday

James Joyce was born in Dublin in 1882. He is best known for his books like “Dubliners” and “Ulysses”, which is often called one of the greatest books ever written. Joyce’s stories are set in Dublin, even though he lived in other countries like Italy and France. His writing style, called stream of consciousness, shows the flow of a character’s thoughts, making his work unique. Every year on June 16th, fans celebrate Bloomsday, the day Ulysses takes place, by reading from his book and dressing up as the characters.
