| Giovanni Boccaccio, born on June 16, 1313, after a full life died on December 21, 1375. Leopold Bloom, though, born in 1866, has been an immortal since June 16, 1904, as he recently explained to Giovanni. Otherwise, instead of Bloom's Day today Joyce's Day would be celebrated, wouldn't it? But what would Joyce be without Bloom? A Nothing. ;-) |
What did Mr. Bloom's lovely wife Molly say again?
"I was a Flower of the mountain yes when I put the rose in my hair like the Andalusian girls used or shall I wear a red yes and how he kissed me under the Moorish wall and I thought well as well him as another and then I asked him with my eyes to ask again yes and then he asked me would I yes to say yes my mountain flower and first I put my arms around him yes and drew him down to me so he could feel my breasts all perfume yes and his heart was going like mad and yes I said yes I will Yes."
