"One Thousand and One Nights in a Bar-Room: Or The Irish Odysseus" is an article/review by Matthew Josephson on/of the book Ulysses by James Joyce.
It begins on page 146 of the journal Broom (from September 1922) which you can read for free here: http://books.google.com/books?id=sEwHAQAAIAAJ&dq
It is interesting to me for its title only, the review speaks at great length as to how Joyce's Ulysses is nothing more than 700+ pages of drunk people in a bar talking.
It has nothing to do with the Nights apart from its title, however, just another interesting mention.
Broom was a journal of the arts in the US, published in the early 20th century - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broom:_An_International_Magazine_of_the_Arts
Josephson was a writer from New York.
