"The most distinctive, the most restless, the most obsessive imagination at work in the Irish theatre today" Brian Friel



The Wake recounts the story of a woman, returning from the USA to her home town in Ireland. As her family learn of her years as a prostitute, she learns their attitudes and Irish society in general. A homecoming play, haunting yet fiercely comic.

finished reading The Wake 🌕🌑🌑🌑🌑
An Irish play about a woman's homecoming and family conflict over inheritance. Lots of drinking & moaning, unclear what's actually going on. Not sure how this got on my to read list. Maybe it works on the stage?
