We spent a good couple of hours basking in the sun‚ fishing rods in hand‚ without a care in the world. It was fantastic just being there‚ staring out at the beautiful blue sea. After we had caught a good number of fish‚ it was time to eat. Mum had prepared some delicious sandwiches and‚ famished as we were‚ we didn’t need

    SYNGE’S “RIDERS TO THE SEA”: The Colonial Image Refuted   Riders to the Sea is a tragedy portraying the sort of poor Irish peasant family which had previously supplied material for comedies on London stages.

The power of the sea is the main theme of the play: it is both provider and destroyer;

    Riders to the Sea by the Irish playwright J.M Synge is a one act drama‚ which in essence is a tragedy‚ yet an unusual one.

Maurya‚ the main character‚ is an old woman. Yet‚ most importantly‚ she is a mother; a mother of six sons who had all perished in the sea. She had had a difficult time bringing them
