About This Event

The Poetry Stroll brings history and literary landmarks to life through poetry & music. The Poetry Stroll: A Guided Literary Walking Tour (James Joyce Tower) The Poetry Stroll explores James Joyce’s Dublin through poetry and music, using the artist’s footsteps as a compass through the city. While best known as a writer, Joyce was also a singer and a poet, and it is through this lens that we encounter his world: Dublin at the beginning of the twentieth century. ​As we walk the streets and visit the places that shaped him, the stroll shines a light on Joyce’s artistic aspirations, creative life and places he later immortalised in Dubliners, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, and Ulysses. At the James Joyce Tower Museum in Sandycove, we encounter Joyce through the lenses of song, friendship, and artistic ambition.
