Epitome Bob Gonzalez Excerpts from great writings by master writers, storytellers, philosophers, poets as well as original commentary by informed enthusiasts. Genres will range from fiction, drama, and essay to poetry, oratory, and aphorism. Frank Delaney's Re: Joyce Frank Delaney ReJOYCE! To commemorate James Joyce's mighty novel, Ulysses, we're launching a podcast. Every week you'll find a five-minute mini-essay from me designed to take you through the novel that's on every list of the greatest books ever written. And as Ulysses runs to some 375,000 words, and I mean to go through it sentence by sentence if I have to, in order to convey the full brilliance of this novel - and the enjoyment to be had from it - I'll be podcasting for some time to come! It's such an absorbing book, it's got diamond mines of references, it's so compassionate, so tender, so moving, so funny - and most of us never know that, because most of us have long been daunted by it. No need to be afraid any more - that is, if you make a habit of listening to these podcasts.
