Absenteeism is a novel written by Sydney Morgan and published in 1825. The story is set in Ireland during the early 19th century and revolves around the issue of absentee landlords who own land in Ireland but live elsewhere, neglecting their duties and responsibilities towards their tenants. The novel follows the lives of two families, the M'Carthys and the O'Donoghues, who are struggling to survive under the oppressive rule of their absentee landlord, Lord Colambre. The M'Carthys are forced to leave their home and move to a small cottage, while the O'Donoghues are faced with eviction and poverty. The novel also explores themes of love, loyalty, and social injustice. The characters are well-developed and the plot is engaging, making it a classic example of Irish literature. Overall, Absenteeism is a powerful commentary on the impact of absentee landlords on the lives of ordinary people and the need for social and economic reform.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
