who is james joyce's bloom?
June 16 was a meaningful day for the author. The day June 16, 1904, was a big one in the romantic life of Leopold Bloom, the protagonist of James Joycesâ Ulysses, at least inside his head. But for James Joyce, the action on that day was even more momentous and concrete. Precocious as a writer, Joyce was also precocious sociologically.
