really enjoyed reading Riders to the Sea. Although it was not always very clear and was slightly confusing it always kept me interested and I couldn’t keep my eyes of the page.

Riders to the Sea 1. By the speech‚ it is evident that Maurya knows something bad is going to happen to her son. The argument stating that she has need for the rope is the strongest she can propose for Bartley to stay because he cannot go without it. If she says that she need the rope for herself‚ that would mean that he would not have a rope for himself. Without the rope‚ he could not go on his voyage. 2.
