"Alive in another time"

Even if you have never read Ulysses by Joyce and few people have, you will enjoy this great piece of writing. Colum McCann, an Irish-born writer won the 2009 National Book Award for Fiction with "Let the Great World Spin."

  1. You were right. It was a wonderful bit of writing...'By the by' more than a few of us have read Ulysses.
    I try to reread it every other year. It's amazing how much I missed the other times I read it. I think I will have to reread alive in another time again later and see how much more I get this time.
    Thanks for sharing

  2. What a wonderful article! The only thing better than losing yourself in a book is perhaps finding yourself in one.
