10th Annual Book Day March 17, 2022 More info: irishartscenter.org

This St. Patrick’s Day, we’re honoring James Joyce’s singular, and singularly influential, novel Ulysses. Celebrating the tome’s 100th anniversary, and continuing the Book Day tradition of recognizing the breadth of Irish literature alongside that of other cultures, our tenth anniversary event will also offer titles by Jewish authors from around the world, in a tribute to Ulysses’ iconic Jewish protagonist, Leopold Bloom. As always, our volunteers and staff, sponsors and supporters—along with our partners at Literature Ireland, the New York City Council and the New York State Assembly—will hand out thousands of free books across all five boroughs.

Presented with generous support from The Society of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick of New York
