“A
child seen him. Seen him sitting on the bench on the jetty,
a pint with him, looking out across the lake to the
mountains there. And when his pint was done he got up and
started walking, the clothes still on him, and didn’t stop
walking. No. ‘Til the poor head of him was under. And even
then he didn’t stop.”
‘The
Lonesome West’ takes us on a bleak journey to Leenane,
Co.Galway, ‘the murder capital of fecking Europe’.
Two adult brothers, Coleman and Valene Connor, fight like
‘a pair of fecking oul women’ over any petty grievance.
Just as they had before Coleman shot their dad in the head
because he insulted his hairstyle. Until one day a young
priest ‘who never achieved anything…. in fact the
opposite’ does something to stop them. Something that
breaks the heart of a sweet nobody, who loved him…
