A profound, luminous masterpiece by one of Irelands greatest playwrights.This edition was published in 2023 with a beautifully redesigned text and cover, to coincide with the National Theatre revival. It is 1936 and harvest time in County Donegal. In a house just outside the village of Ballybeg live the five adult Mundy sisters their older brother, a missionary priest returned from Uganda and the youngest sisters sevenyearold son, Michael. Over the course of two days in the familys life, Brian Friel evokes not only the interior world of a group of human beings trapped in their domestic situation, but the wider landscape public and private, Christian and pagan of which they are nonetheless a part.There is no doubting we are in the thrall of as masterly a dramatist as the theatre possesses.
