On the verge of a marital breakup after the death of their stillborn son, a journalist, Omar Wilde, who is covering the Centenary Bloomsday celebrations of James Joyce’s Ulysses in Dublin, Ireland, is desperately looking for "the story" that will prove his worth to his disillusioned wife, Flora. While wandering around the Bloomsday celebrations, he and a young actor, Kiarán Lynch (Kinch), who, unbeknownst to Omar, is involved with his wife, find themselves embroiled in a potential terrorist attack. Faced with this life-threatening situation, Omar must finally conquer his fears and sense of failure before hundreds of people, including many dignitaries, are murdered horribly.
This audiobook is a shadowing of James Joyce’s Ulysses, set 100 years to the day, June 16, 2004, after Joyce’s masterpiece. It takes a contemporary look at similar issues such as religion, gender equality, and identity in modern Ireland and attempts to answer the question: If the characters of Joyce’s Ulysses were alive in modern Dublin, who might they be?
