Welcome aboard the NB Erica on a wet winter’s night. It is a perfect night to snuggle down and listen to JM Synge’s turn of the 20th century accounts of his travels to the Aran Islands in a small currach on stormy seas.
Journal entry:
14th February, Wednesday (St. Valentine’s Day)
“Outside,
No coat,
On the hill that runs down to the cut.
Warm sun, fleeting,
Cloud chasing with the gulls
And the circle of two buzzards.
Maggie sits, watching,
From a throne of dried grass
And teasels.
I too watch,
As the seconds pause.
I had never realised that the cormorant’s
Buoyant flight
Was quite like that.”
Episode Information:
In this episode I read passages from JM Synge’s (1907) book The Aran Islands republished by Penguin Classics (1992).
