    The Shadow of the Glen and Riders to the Sea is a collection of two one-act plays written by John Millington Synge and first published in 1907. The plays are set in the rural west of Ireland and deal with themes of love, loss, and the harsh realities of life in a remote and unforgiving landscape. The Shadow of the Glen tells the story of a young woman named Nora who is trapped in a loveless marriage to an older man. When a mysterious stranger arrives at their cottage, Nora is tempted to leave her husband and start a new life with him. However, she soon discovers that the stranger is not who he seems and must face the consequences of her actions. Riders to the Sea is a tragedy that explores the devastating impact of the sea on the lives of a family living on the Aran Islands. The play follows Maurya, an old woman who has lost her husband and five sons to the sea. When her youngest son sets out on a dangerous fishing trip, Maurya must confront the possibility of losing him as well. Both plays are written in Synge's distinctive style, which blends naturalistic dialogue with poetic language and draws heavily on the traditions and folklore of rural Ireland. The Shadow of the Glen and Riders to the Sea are considered to be among Synge's most important works and are still widely performed and studied today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

    Edmund John Millington Synge (16 April 1871 - 24 March 1909) was an Irish playwright, poet, writer, collector of folklore, and a key figure in the Irish Literary Revival. His best known play The Playboy of the Western World was poorly received, due to its bleak ending, depiction of Irish peasants, and idealisation of parricide, leading to hostile audience reactions and riots in Dublin during its opening run at Abbey Theatre, Dublin, which he had co-founded with W. B. Yeats and Lady Gregory. His other major works include "In the Shadow of the Glen" (1903), "Riders to the Sea" (1904), "The Well of the Saints" (1905), and "The Tinker''s Wedding" (1909).
