Stephen Colbert Reads Joyce’s Ulysses

Every June 16 is Blooms­day, which com­mem­o­rates James Joyce’s Ulysses (get free audio of the text here). In Dublin and around the world, cel­e­bra­tions usu­al­ly include a read­ing of Joyce’s clas­sic. Last year, in New York City, one high-pro­file event fea­tured Stephen Col­bert read­ing the part of Leopold Bloom, the char­ac­ter around which the sprawl­ing nov­el turns. You can lis­ten to Col­bert read here and here. Enjoy.
