A visit to SandycoveAtlas.com could add another dimension to your appreciation. I believe Joyce borrowed the Atlas from the school where he briefly taught and marked its pages in various ways. It stayed in Ireland but became a ‘mother of memory’ for him when he came to write Ulysses. What U think?

Manuscripts marked in blue and red crayon were absolutely characteristic of Joyce. I found an Atlas in Ireland which I believe shows he was already using the crayons in 1904. For more see SandycoveAtlas.com.

I am so lucky as to have found something which adds yet another extra dimension to Ulysses. See Sandycoveatlas.com for more.

It's wider than that. Jesus was truly woke. Anti-woke is opposed to a wide range of Christian thinking.
