The Left Bank Ulysses Reading Group is a fund-raiser for the film.
The Left Bank Ulysses Reading Group invites readers of all experience levels to engage with James Joyce's masterpiece in a supportive and inclusive environment. Organized by the team behind the Left Bank documentary, the weekly book club aims to make the novel accessible and enjoyable for everyone, especially those who have always wanted to tackle it but felt they lacked the time or guidance.
