Happy Birthday James Joyce



Today marks what would have been the 125th birthday of one of my favourite writers, James Joyce. His Dubliners short story collection includes The Dead, which ends with a snowy graveyard (see above), and Two Gallants, after which Chewi's favourite band are named. If you want to read the 12 stories, about everything from skipping school and late-night card games to falling in love and dying alone, they are all available online for free here.
