Summary "Beyond the Horizon" by Eugene O'Neill is a drama written in the early 20th century. The play explores the lives of the Mayo family, focusing primarily on the brothers Robert and Andrew, as they grapple with their contrasting dreams and aspirations against the backdrop of their rural farm life. The narrative examines themes of longing, love, and the harsh realities of life, particularly as Robert prepares to leave for a sea voyage, spurred by his desire for adventure and an escape from his existence. At the start of the play, we are introduced to Robert Mayo, a sensitive and dream-filled young man who is about to embark on a journey that will take him away from home for three years. As he converses with his pragmatic brother Andrew, their different perspectives on life and duty become evident. Robert's yearning for the beauty and mystery of the world beyond the horizon clashes with Andrew's grounded commitment to the family farm. This dynamic is further complicated by the presence of Ruth, a mutual love interest of both brothers, which hints at underlying tensions and emotional conflicts that are likely to unfold as the story progresses. The opening sets the stage for a poignant exploration of dreams, familial bonds, and the inevitability of change. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
