ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Modelled on Odysseus's encounter with the eaters of the narcotic lotus flower, this episode explores how people lose themselves. With Maud Ellmann, professor at the University of Chicago, Ato Quayson, professor at Stanford University, and Michael Cooney, public relations officer at a plaintiff and labor law firm, we talk about whether Bloom finds himself again. We think about Ulysses as a map of the world as we range from the streets of Dublin to Accra, Ghana, and to Melbourne, Australia.
