Father Conmee starts out towards Artane, and interrupts a courting couple. Corny Kelleher watches on as the priest gets on the tram. A one-legged sailor struggles on, taking what money he is offered. The Dedalus sisters look for what food they can get. Blazes Boylan ogles a girl while buying a fruit basket for Molly. Dedalus meets his Italian instructor Artifoni. Miss Dunne puts down her copy of The Woman In White and gets back to work. Ned Lambert has a chat with Reverend Love. Lenehan, and McCoy, cross town for the Ormond Hotel. They pass Bloom, looking through books before setline on Sweets of Sin for Molly. Dilly and Daddy Dedalus discuss their destitution. Tom Kernan thinks his thoughts before just missing the Viceroy’s carriage pass by. Dilly bumps into Stephen at a book stall, while he impotently notes the families despair. Fr. Cowley tells Simon Dedalus he owes money to Reuben J. Martin Cunningham notes that Bloom not only pledged good money to his fund for the Dignams, but paid up too. Buck and Haines sit down for a coffee. Cashel Boyle O’Connor Fitzmaurice Tisdall Farrell walks on and notes the coming of a revivalist. Paddy Dignam’s son Patrick gets out of the house of Mourning and hopes his father in purgatory, thanks to his late confession. The Viceroy and his wife in their carriage cross the city, passing many, including the man in the Mackintosh. ODDS & ENDS Based on chapters, by the start of the chapter we are past the halfway point, but in terms of pages, but in reality, it is closer to a quarter the way there. Nevertheless, this functions like an intermission in some ways, though Joyce is cruel to have us come back for a far longer second half. Broken into 19 sections, echoing the 18 chapters of the book, we depart from focus on Bloom & Dedalus for the most part, and have a look at what else is happening in the city. For many readers, the real world characters of Fr Conmee, and the Viceroy at the connecting lines. It is argued that they represent the two dominant forces in Ireland at the time – the Church and the Crown, and some describe their amblings as a game of chess. Meanwhile the day-to-day lives of the Irish happen in between them, often encompassing the lewd and unmentionable, with Bloom buying dirty books for his wife, Boylan flirting with women, etc. Whoever is in charge, this is to be the expectation – normally earthly, earthy life will continue. This is simultaneously one of the hardest and easiest chapters. Easy to read, difficult to connect to everything else. If you want to really tie it in to the rest of the novel, have a look at the excellent link below to go through the scenes one by one. Indeed, it kind of reads like a novel in itself, though one that could be as helpfully read backwards as forwards – knowing what is to come is as useful as knowing what has passed within it. Also, for all the journeys we dip in on, it would be worthwhile to note that even a flyer for a revival meeting blowing in the wind shows up in a few of these – Elijah is coming, and going, and hither and thither.
