In these short stories, Moore affectionately depicts authentic scenes of Irish rural life. Moore originally penned them for translation into Irish as part of the Irish Renaissance movement. The stories, which focus on the themes of Church oppression, poverty, and emigration, have been praised as the first Irish short stories and forerunners to Joyce’s Dubliners.
