"Geduldsspiel: Dublin durchqueren ohne an einer Kneipe vorbei zu kommen." (Bloomsday)

In the organizer's words:

With Leopold Bloom in the places of contemplation. Gastronomic episodes from James Joyce's Ulysses

Mr. Bloom is right: Dublin's pub density was already remarkable in his day. And that's why, on this Hanover Bloomsday, we want to take a special tour of the city and follow our protagonist to the "pubs with a liquor license" where he stopped off on 16 June 1904: for lunch, for lunch, for a cyclopean encounter with excited Dubliners, until the nightly sobering-up stop in a coachman's budike, before he brews the last drink of the day in his own kitchen - "the godsend cocoa".

As usual, Heiko Postma will read out and comment on the episodes; and as usual, Robert Paterson, our bard from Belfast, will come up with impressively thematically relevant Irish songs. And to ensure that no one has to go hungry in the face of the text-related opulence of food and drink, this time there will be plenty of Irish food on offer. Sláinte!

Heiko Postma lives as a freelance author, translator and publicist in Hanover.
