BLOOMSDAY IN MARBELLA 2010

Bloomsday – June 16th – is an annual celebration among Joyce fans throughout the world, from Fort Lauderdale to Melbourne. It is celebrated in at least sixty countries worldwide, but nowhere so imaginatively, of course, as in Dublin. The novel, Ulysses, by James Joyce recounts the hour-by-hour events of one day in Dublin – June 16, 1904 – as an ordinary Dubliner, Leopold Bloom, wends his way through the urban landscape, the odyssey of a modern-day Ulysses.

This year for the first time it will be celebrated in Marbella on Friday June 18th.

(It has been celebrated in Marbella previously, (ReJoyce Marbella 2009) but not by this new organization.)

The Irish Club Marbella is holding its inaugural ‘Bloomsday in Marbella’ event.

“We will gather together at El BODEGON Café on the Paseo Marítimo in Marbella at 1pm.  There will be a designated area for our group where a glass of wine or two and good tapas (e.g. morcilla con arroz …)  will be served”.

Joycean painter, Roger Cummiskey, will do the first Bloomsday reading from the novel by James Joyce - Ulysses – that gives it´s name to the day from one of the main characters, Leopold Bloom.

A short documentary story entitled “A Stroll through Ulysses”  written and narrated by Roger and made by the Irish film maker Noel Duffy will run in the background. The film visits all of the locations in the novel in 2004 – 100 years after the date on which the novel was set.

Second venue.

Restaurante La Relojera

Calle Fuengirola, 16, 29603 Marbella952 771 447‎

2^nd venue 2.45pm:

Our second venue is RELOJERA and it is a typically-Spanish fish restaurant on Calle Fuengirola at the fishing port at the east entrance of Marbella, right in front of the big “Blue Glass” building, Marina Marbella.  Turn right coming out of Marbella at the Titanic roundabout – east of El Fuerte Hotel.   A variety of freshly caught fish will be served for each table to share, tapas-style, with lots of lemon & bowls of alioli and plates of sun-kissed tomatoes with garlic and olive oil.  1/2 bottle of wine and water included.  Vegetarian and dairy-free options available, just let us know in advance.

Once we are all ensconced with a glass in our lámh, a second reading from Ulysses will be given.  After lunch we can look forward to hearing a Molly Bloom soliloquy being performed by Dee McMath”.
