‘Every speech should be as fully flavoured as a nut or apple and such
speeches cannot be written by anyone who works among people who have
shut their lips on poetry.’
Mysterious, troublesome, romantic, Synge rose to fame in the first
years of the century on a flood of lively, outrageous work. On its first
night at the Abbey Theatre, The Playboy of the Western World started a
riot, and was denounced as ‘immoral’ and ‘Anti-Irish’. Synge never
shirked the rawness of Irish life in his work, but he was also
fascinated by the inherent poetry of that curious hybrid the
Irish-English language, and no writer captures its music and magic
better. Here, together with the complete plays and poems, is The Aran
Islands, Synge’s chronicle of the life and the people that inspired his
works and his words.
