This is Jerry. He hangs out at the Toledo Museum of Art. He was painted in 1950, when Ulysses was still banned in the U.S.

P.s. I've never actually read Ulysses.
Swe_Eva That‘s an awesome paining! I read parts of it when I was at Uni, but I‘m in a group read in May, so hopefully that‘ll land it on my Already-Read list. Fingers Xed. 😉 7y
lyradora Oh good grief. What was the lame excuse for banning Ulysses? 😠 7y
jwashreads @lyradora too avant-garde apparently. 7y
jwashreads @LT_eva good luck with it--maybe it is easier reading it with others who will hold you accountable. 7y
