Blooms & Barnacles

Dick Feeney

08 May 2019

Description

A super-sized Blooms and Barnacles! Dick is a friend of Kelly's and Dermot's who is a lover of Ulysses and the music found throughout the novel. Dick talks about some of his favorite songs that play a role in Ulysses and the history behind them. We also chat about the use of music in "The Dead," the final story in The Dubliners. And because we've never  met a tangent we didn't like, we also talk (briefly) about Dick's time in Turkey, Stephen's lost faith, Dick's love of the opera, and  grieving over tragedies that happened many generations ago.  Sweny's Patreon is almost to its goal, but they can still use your help.
