Question

A boy in this family with a “delicate mauve face” reads a book, smiling and kissing its pages, while his father inaudibly calls his name. An inner monologue recalls the suicide of a member of this family with a “redlabelled bottle” that was ruled a “death by misadventure.” A person in this family has an imagined conversation with his grandfather (-5[1])Virag, who emigrated from Hungary. That man in this family hallucinates an apparition of his stillborn son during a visit to (*) Bella Cohen’s brothel. A woman who married into this family asks her husband the meaning of the word “metempsychosis” in their house on Eccles Street. A man in this family peeps on Gerty Macdowell and avoids Blazes Boylan over the course of June 16, 1904. For 10 points, name this family, whose patriarch Leopold wanders Dublin in Ulysses. ■END■ (10[1])
