24.North Inner City Dublin

Miller took many images in Dublin’s North Inner City, which holds many significant Joycean locations both relating to his life and to his work. Streets like Eccles Street, North Richmond Street, Hardwicke Street and Great Denmark Street surrounded Joyce in his youth once the Joyce family had moved into Dublin city from the suburbs. Eccles Street would later become the home of the Bloom family, with the door from 7 Eccles Street taking pride of place here at the James Joyce Centre today. This area would provide Joyce with considerable inspiration and references to it can be found in all of his major works.
