An Chead Chloch

An Chead Chloch by Padraic O Conaire

These eight stories, written for An Claideamh Soluis and published in book form in 1914 are among the most remarkable of the whole Gaelic Revival.

Pádraic Ó Conaire was born in Galway City in 1882 and reared in Rosmuc in the Connemara Gaeltacht. After leaving school he went to work as a civil servant in the Ministry of Education in London. There he met Irish-language activists (he was a friend of Robert Lynd, Michael Collins and the historian P. S. O’Hegarty) and became a teacher of Irish for the Gaelic League. His works include the short-story collections Nora Mharcuis Bhig agus Scéalta Eile (1909) and An Chéad Chloch (1914), and the novel Deoraíocht (1916). He returned to Ireland in1914 and lived there until his death in 1928. M’Asal Beag Dubh, one of the books for which he is best known, was published in 1944.
