Born in Dublin, Stanislaus was considered a &#8220;Whetstone&#8221; by his more famous brother, who shared his ideas and his books with him. He was three years younger than James and was his constant boyhood companion. Stanislaus rebelled against his native Ireland as his brother had done, and, in 1905, he joined James&#8217;s household in Trieste. He wrote a memoir (unfinished) called My Brother&#8217;s Keeper, on which the play <em>John, May, James and Me<\/em> by Eddie Naughton is based, along with other writings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The play looks at the Joyce family dynamic through the eyes of Stanislaus, from their father, John, a feckless Cork character with notions, to the long-suffering mother, May.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also looks in depth at the relationship between the two brothers over many years. Their trials and tribulations. The good times and bad. What was it like having a literary genius as a brother? How do you stop him from destroying his gift and even himself?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-vivid-red-color has-text-color\"><strong>This event is now sold out.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","event_cats":[17],"class_list":["post-2447","events","type-events","status-publish","hentry","event_categories-reading"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>John, May, James and Me - James Joyce Centre, Dublin, Ireland<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"John, May, James and Me - James Joyce Centre, Dublin, Ireland\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"A Reading by Pat Nolan 07 July 2023, 1pm Stanislaus Joyce was the younger brother of James Joyce.
