The Sniper is about the war between two groups in Ireland. A sniper is on a roof waiting for something to happen. He is wounded,trapped,and for a short time frightened. He finally kills the enemy sniper only to find it was his brother.
The Sniper
The author of The Sniper is Liam O'Flaherty. (1896-1984). He was born in Ireland. He lived impoverished in the rocky Aran Islands.
In the end this story reflects the horrors of war. It shows us how differences in opinion can pit brother against brother. It shows us that war is a horrible thing and no matter who wins in the end we all lose.
