In Wicklow and West Kerry is a book written by John M. Synge, an Irish playwright, poet, and writer of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book is a collection of essays and sketches that were originally published in various magazines and newspapers between 1898 and 1903. The essays and sketches in the book describe the author's travels through the counties of Wicklow and Kerry in Ireland. Synge writes about the people he meets, the landscapes he sees, and the customs and traditions of the regions. He also provides insights into the social and economic conditions of rural Ireland at the time.The book is considered a classic of Irish literature and is highly regarded for its vivid descriptions of the Irish countryside and its people. Synge's writing style is noted for its poetic language and its ability to capture the essence of the Irish character.In Wicklow and West Kerry is a must-read for anyone interested in Irish literature, history, or culture. It provides a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era of Irish life and the people who inhabited it.It was heavy running, and we both began to get weary. Then I caught my foot in a briar and fell. Immediately the young man rushed to the wall and began scrambling up it, but just as he was drawing his leg over the top I caught him by the heel. For a moment he struggled and kicked, then by sheer weight I brought him down at my feet, and an armful of masonry along with him. I caught him by the neck and tried to ask his name, but found we were too breathless to speak.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
