James Joyce Ramble spread out along the course. Six Joycean works have been selected, and the story being told changes each of the six miles of the race. The works, in the order in which they are read are: Finnegans Wake, Ulysses, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Exiles, Dubliners, and The Dead.
