Margaret Franklin from the heart of Ireland, Athlone shares this fantastic family heirloom owned by her late father Alan who used to read Ulysses to her. Part of the green dustcover has turned a dusty brown but Margaret dusts off the book each June to read Ulysses on Bloomsday in places like Burgess Park and Athlone Castle. It is a 1949 reprint of the first unlimited edition published by Bodley Head in 1937. You can also see her father's name neatly written on the title page. There is still time to share your own selfies with Ulysses before Bloomsday to be entered in with the chance to win a Wordsworth Editions collection of Joyce's work. April's winner to be announced shortly. #handmemywordsworth #wordsworthclassics #wordsworthedition #ulysessunleashed #joyce #ulisses #ulises #ulysesscentenary #bloomsdaysociety #bloomsdaysocieties #jamesjoyce #bookgiveaways #bookgiveaway #athlonecastlevisitorcentre #athlonecastle #burgesspark #burgessparkathlone #bloomsdayinathlone #ulyssesproject #bloomsdaysocietyathlone #thegroundhogdaychallenge (at Athlone, Ireland) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdEJiz1I8xx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
