    John Millington (J.M.) Synge

    An Island off the West of Ireland.

  • Achoimre

    After nine days of constant grieving for her missing son, Michael, who, she feels certain, has been drowned, Maurya has fallen into a fitful sleep. Her daughter, Cathleen, is busy with household tasks, when another daughter, Nora, slips quietly into the kitchen with a bundle given her by the young priest. It contains part of the clothes taken from the body of a drowned man far in the north. They have been sent to Maurya's cottage with a view to possible identification.
