About the Only Other Jew

Let me introduce myself.  I am Val’s husband, as in “Oh, you’re Val’s husband!” or “Oh, you’re Val’s husband! You see my friends, at home in our lovely Sonoma County community I have no real identity of my own, but in Dublin, that’s another story entirely.

I AM the only other Jew in Dublin, and like Joyce’s Bloom I have a penchant for voyeurism. Unlike Bloom, I will live for a year, not a day, in Dublin, and I will ply my voyeurism to bring you a slightly offbeat picture of the new Ireland.
