Lucia Joyce: Full Capacity by Deirdre Mulrooney

A special limited edition book "Lucia Joyce: Full Capacity" by Deirdre Mulrooney (Grand Canal Publishing) supported the James Joyce Centre has been born in time to celebrate and share the hidden artistic achievements of Lucia Anna Joyce, James Joyce's daughter, on Saint Lucia’s Day (December 13th) 2024! Winter solstice in the Julian calendar, this feast day was traditionally celebrated in the Joyce family to honour Lucia and the origin of her name, which means ‘light’, at the darkest time of the year.

Join us on Saint Lucia’s Day 2024 as we continue this tradition by launching Deirdre's meticulously researched illustrated booklet. The event will feature readings by Deirdre and other guest speakers as we enjoy a lunchtime tea and coffee.
