Riders to the Sea John Millington Synge\'s
This essay examines how John Synge subverts a common trope in his play Riders to the Sea. The play is about a woman who has lost numerous loved ones to the sea, and the sea's control over her, and everyone else's, lives is repeated throughout. However, by the end of the play, the main character has found some kind of peace, because with no more that can be taken from her, she finds freedom from the sea's power and comes to terms with death.
