As I Was Going Down Sackville Street


by Oliver St John Gogarty

Witty, eccentric, vastly entertaining, this is Gogarty's best-known book of autobiography. Written with passion and keen observation, it paints a vivid portrait of Dublin in the 1920s.

It is peopled with an extraordinary cast of characters from the cultural and political life of the time, who were Gogarty's personal friends: W.B. Yeats, James Joyce, George Moore, William Orpen, Lady Lavery, AE, Augustus John, and Arthur Griffith, Tim Healy and Michael Collins.
