Dublin

Considering the prominence of Dublin in the works of James Joyce, I figured a thread on this might be appropriate. As usual with me, I did a tagmash on Dublin, novel -- and came up with:

Ulysses by James Joyce
A portrait of the artist as a young man by James Joyce
Paddy Clarke, ha-ha-ha by Roddy Doyle (a romp of Dublin by a ten-year old trying to figure out his paents and the world)
At Swim-Two-Birds by Flann O'Brien (set in Dublin, very Irish, but I don't remember it as very Dublinish in the viewing sense).
Dubliners by James Joyce

I guess James Joyce's Finnegans Wake didn't figure highly in the tagmash I did, but there is the famous quote about Dublin's River Liffey: "riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay, brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs."

Keith Ridgway's novel The Parts includes wonderful descriptions of modern Dublin.

These look like they might be interesting:

A Star Called Henry and The Barrytown Trilogy by Roddy Doyle
The Princes of Ireland and The Rebels of Ireland by Edward Rutherfurd
Trinity by Leon Uris
1916 and 1921 by Morgan Llewellyn
Circle of Friends by Maeve Binchy

Strumpet City: A Novel by the late Irishman, James Plunkett

At swim two boys by Jamie O'Neill is another fairly worthwhile recent book with a lot of Dublin in it (more of an hommage to Joyce than to Flann O'Brien, despite the title).
