Milliner & Joycean I started right away reading your chapter about your extraordinary experiences in that haunted castle somewhere along the Rhine valley and I couldn't stop laughing! Good Lord, your fantasy and your way of describing your adventures and other mysteries are absolutely thrilling and really made my weekend! Tilla Freifrau von der Goltz You captured my generation and experiences so well and I found so many images and memories resonated with me. Patrick Delaney What a lovely production! Ulysses 100 is quite a treasure of Joyceana and local lore. The photos are wonderful and I am really enjoying reading through it. Thank you so much for this little treasure, I am sure it will be much appreciated by Joyceans, especially those on our Nth. side. Yvonne Altman-O'Connor
Director Irish Jewish Museum FOOTSTEPS THE BOOK This is a compendium about the delights of spoken language and the magic of living words. A playful variety of poetry styles and contemporary prose. Written in Dublin-English in Germany - with a tiny spattering of Gaelic and German in between! A potpourri of fantasy, fact and fiction from Ireland to Germany. * * * PROSE Like 'Ulysses', its puns and punditry, and its stream-of-consciousness perambulations compete and contrast abruptly with bold outbursts of straight prose and memoir of life before, during and after early schooling, university education and subsequent experience. Covering decades of observation, with reference to history, culture, religion and mythology, including, at times, very cryptic allusion. It might be read and/or spoken aloud. Although its geography and tangents leap from Europe to Asia this is at heart an energetic discourse in latter day Dublinosity. POETRY Well captured - the imagery of place and time and the complex weave of history, folklore, personal memoir and myth; obviously of Dublin and Germany but also of the deeper Irish layers of origin, from geology and topography through place names and tradition, up to the fleeting present. Patrick Long M.A.

ULYSSES 100 is a brief & light introduction for Bloomsday novices; also featuring new perspectives for avid Joyceans on James Joyce's teenage abode at 29 Windsor Avenue, Fairview, Dublin (his only home address that is specifically mentioned in ULYSSES); and on Molly Bloom's Spanish / Fairview-Irish Jewish connections.

Patrick Patridge, a Dubliner abroad like Joyce himself, and an author with a growing list of his own observations on German and Irish life and memory, urges a sense of public engagement with James Joyce and the sheer fun and enjoyment of Joyce's works for everyone who takes even a passing interest in the lives and times and ideas of Joyce.
