One-time friends
Lifetime enemies

Locked together forever in the pages of Ulysses

James Joyce and Oliver St John Gogarty were close friends in the year leading up to Joyce's departure from Dublin into self-imposed exile in 1904. The friendship, always strained by competitiveness, disintegrated into long-term enmity after a celebrated falling out in the Martello Tower in Sandycove which involved a nightmarish black panther and a real gun and formed the backdrop to the opening chapter of Joyce's masterpiece Ulysses.

One went on to international recognition as a 20th century literary icon; the other used his literary talents only fitfully and found himself remembered mainly as plump Buck Mulligan to Joyce's sensitive Stephen Dedalus.

The Tower brings them back to Sandycove again in the present day, to recreate their relationship with humour and insight - and more than a century of hindsight - as they look back on their friendship, their art, and their lives.
