MP3 Audio CD. Subtitled A Second Series of Irish Idylls and published in 1895, Strangers at Lisconnel is a sequel to Irish Idylls, a collection of poems by Jane Barlow first published in 1892 and re-published eight more times due to its tremendous success.The characters in this second collection are very similar as the characters in the first series of poems and the setting is also the same: Irish peasants living in the Irish countryside. The topics introduced in the first collection also return in the second book: the struggle of the characters with their landlords, the hardships that they encounter and must face day by day and the even graver circumstances they must endure as the consequence of the potato famine. Even though, in her depictions of the characters, she adopts a loving and understanding tone, Jane Barlow herself was of a higher social class than her characters. Born as the daughter of the vice-provost of Trinity College, she spent her childhood and most of her adulthood living in an… Read More

MP3 Audio CD. Strangers at Lisconnel CHAPTER I OUT OF THE WAY To Lisconnel, our very small hamlet in the middle of a wide bogland, the days that break over the dim blue hill-line, faint and far off, seldom bring a stranger's face; but then they seldom take a familiar one away, beyond reach, at any rate of return before nightfall. In fact, there are few places amid this mortal change to which we may come back after any reasonable interval with more confidence of finding things just as we left them, due allowance being made for the inevitable fingering of Time. We shall find some old people who have aged under it, and some who, as certain philosophers would hold, have grown younger again. The latter may be seen just beginning, perhaps, to sit up stiff on a woman's arm, or starting for a trial crawl over mother earth; and of them we remark that there is another little Ryan or Quigley; while the former stay sunning themselves so inertly, or totter about so shakily, that we notice at once how much old… Read More
