From Dublin to DC, Irish stories travel well.☘️📚🌸 As we look ahead to Bloomsday, we celebrate Joyce and the wider tradition of Irish writers who have carried Ireland’s literary voice far beyond its shores. Stay tuned for #BloomsdayandBeyond programming around DC this month!

Irish writing features prominently on bookshelves all over the world. This year we celebrate Bloomsday & Beyond with booksellers who explain why writing from Ireland, the island of writers, resonates so strongly with their readers.

From Joyce’s Dublin to Tóibín’s transatlantic worlds, Irish literature has always travelled—carrying place, memory, and longing. On Bloomsday, this tradition feels especially alive. Read our interview with Colm Tóibín at Ireland.ie/bloomsday.

What I can only describe as a religious experience viewing treasures from one of the finest Joycean collections @librarycongress ahead of Bloomsday. A huge thanks to Dr. Patrick Hastings and colleagues for showcasing and stewarding such an incredible collection!

Ar an 1 Iúil, glacfaidh Éire Uachtaránacht Chomhairle an AE uirthi féin den 8ú huair. I ndomhan atá éiginnte, is treise sinn nuair a sheasaimid le chéile. In Éirinn, is meabhrú dúinn é an seanfhocal “Ní neart go cur le chéile” ar an méid sin.

My favorite night of the year—Bloomsday in Washington (we couldn’t wait to celebrate)! The Irish voice Joyce carried so well still reverberates everywhere. We even brought Sweny’s Pharmacy across the Atlantic. Many thanks to all of our well-dressed friends for joining us!

Your next Irish read could be right around the corner. ☘️📚👀 Ahead of Bloomsday, we’ve hidden Irish books in Little Free Libraries across DC. Snap a photo if you spot one and tag @IrelandEmbUSA with #BloomsdayAndBeyond—we would love to see where Irish literature finds a home!
