About the author

J. M. (John Millington) Synge

1871–1909

A leading voice of the Irish Literary Revival, this playwright turned close observation of rural life on the Aran Islands and in the west of Ireland into vivid, lyrical drama. Best known for works including Riders to the Sea and The Playboy of the Western World, he wrote plays that were both poetic and startlingly alive.
