James Joyce's Dublin
The Irish writer James Joyce set much of his works in Dublin. Due to his modernist style of writing which gives a lot of details on the sites where action takes place, you can often trace his characters on a map and identify those places of early 20th century Dublin which still exist.
UnderstandPerhaps Joyce's most famous work – Ulysses – famously describes events on a single day in Dublin – June 16 1904 – the anniversary of which has since come to be known as Bloomsday for one of the characters in the book.
