More about the book

Exploring the life of J. M. Synge, this collection showcases the complete plays of the influential Irish playwright and cofounder of the Abbey Theatre. Known for his enigmatic personality and tumultuous reception, particularly with "The Playboy of the Western World," Synge's works reflect his struggles and the complexities of Irish identity. Despite his early passion for music, his shyness led him to literature, where he made a lasting impact before his untimely death from Hodgkin's disease at 37. This edition features premium acid-free paper.
