Riders To The Sea is a one-act play written by Irish playwright John M. Synge. The play is set in the Aran Islands, off the west coast of Ireland, and tells the story of a family struggling with the loss of their men to the sea. The central character, Maurya, has lost her husband, father-in-law, and five sons to the sea, and she is left with only one son, Bartley. The play follows Maurya and her family as they come to terms with the inevitability of death and the harsh realities of life on the islands. The play is a powerful exploration of grief, loss, and the human condition, and is considered one of Synge's masterpieces.It is surely. There was a man in here a while ago -- the man sold us that knife -- and he said if you set off walking from the rocks beyond, it would be seven days you'd be in Donegal.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
