Abstract
Star of the Sea is a heartfelt and heart-wrenching story that plunges its readers into the depths of dark, brutal Irish history and explores the painful ordeal of the devastating Irish Potato Famine. This thesis will try to explain the circumstances that led to the Great Irish Famine, describe its devastating consequences and show how it is depicted in Joseph O’Connor’s novel Star of the Sea, a novel based on the Famine’s destruction of the Irish community. Furthermore, it will explore the intricate narrative style of the novel, and its different perspectives on the Famine. We will see how the landlords reacted to the disaster, and how the tenants did. The main part of the thesis will follow the three protagonists and their attempts to survive the Famine.
