Castle Rackrent by Maria Edgeworth (English) Paperback Book

Description: Castle Rackrent by Maria Edgeworth Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Thady Quirk - or "honest Thady" - having lived on the estate of Castle Rackrent for most of his long life, takes it upon himself to "publish the MEMOIRS of the RACKRENT FAMLY." Speaking in Irish vernacular, he describes the masters he and his family have served under: Sir Patrick, who fills his house with guests and drinks himself to death; Sir Murtagh, his heir, a "great lawyer," who refuses - "out of honor" - to pay Sir Patricks debts; and Sir Kit, who gambles and eventually sells his estate to Thadys son. Through Thadys memories of these landowners (and the tenants who all too often had to pay for the landowners indulgences) we gain a picture of feudal life in Ireland before the Irish Revolution. Thady is an unreliable narrator who, it appears, cannot - or does not - tell the whole story. Which leaves a question. Is Thady a naive and loyal servant or is he a clever and self-serving man who knows how to get his point across and his plans accomplished without seeming to know what he is saying or doing?
