I visited this status with family to introduce younger relatives to a great writer. Sad to see people sitting on a statue as if it was unimportant. Seemed a bit of an ill use of a monument to such a powerful thought provoking writer. Regardless...More

I have to admit, I didn't know who James Joyce was when my guide took us down North Earl Street, I now know he wrote Ulysses, wrote 'interesting...' letters to his female friends and has a statue with a cool pose in Dublin, it was...More

One of three statues all within a 5 minute walk on O'Connell ST. Right next to the GOP, this is a must for statue and literary fans.

The statue is an absolutely beautiful work of art. The size is impressive. It is predominately located so you can easily see and admire it.
