A Life Of J M Synge
J M Synge is famous as the author of 'The Playboy Of The Western World' which provoked riots at its Dublin premiere in 1907. This biography details the complex religious and social environment in which Synge slowly refined his talents as a writer. It is a story of suburban disinheritance, nondescript education, and sexual immaturity leading to eventual self-discovery, through the landscape of County Wicklow and the West of Ireland.
