Seosamh Mac Grianna

Birthplace

What is recorded here

Seosamh Mac Grianna is a birthplace in Rann na Feirste, County Donegal, Ireland. Perhaps the boy born there in 1901 learned that language is a living thing before he learned much else. Maybe the Atlantic wind carried sentences into the house, shaping a writer who gave voice to what most people could only feel. Imagine standing in that room now, hearing the sea knock at the walls like a poet asking to be let in.

Why this person is known: Irish writer (1901–1990)
