Lotus Eater: Songs & Verses from the Poetry Stroll

Through music, poetry, and storytelling, The Poetry Stroll brings to life the history and literary landmarks of Dublin on Saturday, 22nd November 2025 at 7pm.

After a year of tracing the footsteps of James Joyce, Leopold Bloom, Cashel Boyle O’Connor Fitzmaurice Tisdall Farrell — and many others — around Sweny’s Pharmacy, Merrion Square Park, and Finn’s Hotel, the songs and verses performed during The Poetry Stroll have now been gathered on an album: Lotus Eater: Songs & Verses.

Join us for the launch concert at the James Joyce Centre for an evening of Joycean songs, poetry set to music, and a few original pieces into the bargain — by singer-songwriter Remco Jacobs, a.k.a. Lotus Eater.
