   Extractions: The Life of Liam O'Flaherty Peer Critique Liam O'Flaherty is one of the most significant and important modern Anglo-Irish authors. His novels have not been met with much critical analysis over the last forty years because he stopped publishing work in 1956. Both his novels and his short stories define Anglo-Irish literature in that his themes stem from his experiences growing up in a poverty-stricken society on the island of Aran; his naturalistic, mystical, romantic, and realistic styles were also defined by his experiences in his native Ireland. Liam O'Flaherty was born in the village of Gort na gCapall, Inishmore, on 28 August 1896. Inishmore is the most northern of the Aran Islands. Gort na gCapall means "The Field of the Horses" and is true to its meaning. The entire area of Inishmore was bleak and harsh. The treeless, flat, rocky ground was almost too shallow for any crops to grow. Such a harsh land affected O'Flaherty immensely: I was born on a storm-swept rock and hate the soft growth of sunbaked lands where there is no frost in men's bones. Swift thoughts, and the swift flight of ravenous birds, and the squeal of terror of hunted animals to me reality. I have seen the leaping salmon fly before the salmon whale, and I have seen the sated buck horn his mate, and the wanderer leave his wife in search of fresh bosoms with the fire of joy in his eye. For me, that man is great who is his own God and the slave man is a harnessed lout who jingles the coppers of his hire in the scales of mediocrity (Doyle 18).

    liam O’ FLAHERTY was a child of the nineteenth century, and a man of the twentieth. Born in rural poverty, he died in urban comfort.  
    http://www.iol.ie/~scash/biog.htm
    
    Extractions: O’Flaherty was a strange, often contradictory man, unique among his contemporaries in Irish literature. In his writings we can see the beginnings of much that is now being done in both Gaelic and Irish literature. Though often neglected in the sweep of modern Anglo-American criticism, he was widely appreciated on the continent; and his own love of France and admiration for Russian literature suggest that he was more truly a European writer. From the dying remnants of an ancient culture, from the shattered fragments of a modern life, he composed the unities of his art. This book is published to mark the centenary of Liam O’Flaherty’s birth. It is intended to provide, through biographical commentary and extracts from his stories and novels, together with appropriate illustrations, a recreation of his varied experiences and his divided imaginative world. More than a decade after his death, it may also introduce him to new and to younger readers. from Peter Costello's Preface to Liam O’Flaherty’s Ireland, Wolfhound Press, Dublin 1996
