Description
Grania: The Story of an Island is a novel written by Emily Lawless and published in 1891. The story is set on the fictional island of Aranmore, off the west coast of Ireland. The novel follows the life of Grania O'Malley, a young woman who is the daughter of a wealthy landowner on the island. Grania is a strong-willed and independent woman who is determined to live life on her own terms, despite the expectations of society.The novel explores themes of love, family, tradition, and the clash between modernity and tradition. Grania falls in love with a young man named Diarmuid, who is from a lower social class than her own. Their relationship is met with opposition from Grania's family and the rest of the island's community. Grania must navigate the expectations placed upon her as a woman of her social standing, while also following her heart and pursuing her own desires.Throughout the novel, Lawless vividly describes the rugged beauty of the island and the harsh realities of life for those who live there. The novel also touches on the political tensions of the time, with references to the Irish Land War and the struggle for Irish independence.Grania: The Story of an Island is a timeless tale of love, courage, and the search for personal freedom. It is a classic work of Irish literature that continues to captivate readers over a century after its initial publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
