Today is the 100th anniversary of 'Bloomsday', the day on which all the action of Ulysses takes place.

As ever, the BBC has come up trumps, and here is a Cheat's Guide to Joyce's Ulysses.

That, my friends, is a proper use of the licence fee. The BBC - reading books so that you don't have to.

Edited to add: There are some great comments at the bottom of that page now, although my favourite has to be: "Perhaps one day I shall read it, just out of spite."

And I gather he hangs round the internet a lot. Like all the best people.
