2 & 3 Sam and Nula (collage)

Sam and Nula are Samuel Beckett and Nula Costello. Nula was from Tuam and was an aunt of mine. She met Sam in Paris through James Joyce's daughter Lucia .She was an important part of Sam's life.

James Joyce’s A Portrait of the Artist to me shows what the education system in this country has done to many a person, me being one of them, and Joyce being one of them also, are you?. .

I feel that a lot of people were affected by the Christian Brothers ,the nuns and priests. So when they say to me “they weren't all bad” I say, the odd one was good.
