#OTD in 1941 – James Joyce, considered by many to be one of the most important modern authors in English because of his revolutionary approach to the novel, dies in Zurich.
When I die Dublin will be written in my heart. –James Joyce James Joyce published ‘Portrait of the Artist’ in 1916 and caught the attention of Ezra Pound. With ‘Ulysses,’ Joyce perfected his stream-of-consciousness style and became a literary celebrity. The explicit content of his prose brought about landmark legal decisions on obscenity. Joyce’s relationship with his native country was a complex…

I spoke to you satirically tonight but I was speaking of the world not of you. I am an enemy of the ignobleness and slavishness of people but not of you. Can you not see the simplicity which is at the back of all my disguises? We all wear masks

Way back at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic you might remember Gal Gadot did an embarrassing tone-deaf video where her and half of Hollywood sang 'Imagine' together. A few days later I released a parody where half the Irish comedy scene read Joyce's filthy love letters. It didn't go Irish Twitter viral the way I'd hoped at the time and now I bequeath it to all of you.

"I love you deeply and truly, Nora. I feel worthy of you now. There is not a particle of my love that is not yours. In spite of these things which blacken my mind against you I think of you always at your best... Nora, I love you. I cannot live without you. I would like to give you everything that is mine, any knowledge I have (little as it is), any emotions I myself feel or have felt, any likes or dislikes I have, any hopes I have or remorse. I would like to go through life side by side with you, telling you more and more until we grew to be one being together until the hour should come for us to die. Even now the tears rush to my eyes and sobs choke my throat as I write this. Nora, we have only one short life in which to live. O my darling, be only a little kinder to me, bear with me a little even if I am inconsiderate and unmanageable and believe me we will be happy together. Let me love you in my own way. Let me have your heart close to mine to hear every throb of my life, every sorrow, every joy."
James Joyce, letter to his partner Nora Barnacle (1909)

"My sweet little whorish Nora... You had an arse full of farts that night, darling... big fat fellows, long windy ones, quick little merry cracks and a lot of tiny little naughty farties ending in a long gush from your hole... I think I would know Nora’s fart anywhere. I think I could pick hers out in a roomful of farting women. It is a rather girlish noise not like the wet windy fart which I imagine fat wives have. It is sudden and dry and dirty like what a bold girl would let off in fun in a school dormitory at night. I hope Nora will let off no end of her farts in my face so that I may know their smell also. Goodnight, my little farting Nora, my dirty little f*ckbird!"

“O how I should like to have your sympathy and words of encouragement, to forget all and fall asleep in your arms hidden by your love. Everything seems to have melted away from me, money, hope and youth. You at least will remain. Don't grieve for me. Eat and sleep and be happy. When we meet (and I hope it will be very soon) I hope to find in you what I have lost elsewhere, to see you young and happy and smiling and walking like a queen.” -James Joyce, in a letter to Nora Barnacle, dated 23 August, 1912
