Books by Gerald O'Donovan
Gerald O'Donovan was ordained in 1895, and was a friend of Lady Gregory, W B Yeats and George Moore, and a supporter of Gaelic League. He left the priesthood in 1908 to work in London's East End, and married in 1910. He had a secret twenty-year affair with the novelist Rose Macaulay: Vocations was written at the height of this relationship. He died from cancer in 1940.
