Blazes Boylan

Blazes Boylan

=Hugh (“Blazes”) Boylan=

Hugh (“Blazes”) Boylan is a fictional character from the James Joyce novel Ulysses. He is the manager for Marion Bloom’s upcoming concert in Belfast. Blazes Boylan is well-known and well-liked around town, but comes across as a rather sleazy individual, especially in regards to his attitudes toward women. Boylan has become interested in Molly Bloom, and they commence an affair during the afternoon of the novel.
