I thought how this didn’t make any sense and that it was mainly about an old fart that fell from the sky. I had a difficult time relating to the story as it made no impression on me. I kept searching clues

    Drama Objective Review: I 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. I loved the vocabulary that they used in the early 1900s. I thought that it seemed very classy and intelligent. I love the way John Millington Synge described how Maurya (the old woman) lost all of her sons to the sea. He uses very brief and to the point explanations of how Maurya’s sons

In my opinion this magical realism was very well written; even though I think more of the characters emotions could have been shared. Although Gabriel Garcia Marquez chose such a basic storyline of a new person comes to town‚ he was able to take it to new places. The story is also written from a third person limited point of view. In class we talked about
