Coole
Augusta Gregory (1852–1932)
Coole
Dublin, The Cuala Press, 1931
Coole was the last book Gregory published during her lifetime. Printed in a limited edition by the Cuala Press, it offers a loving account of the property, with chapters about the contents and histories of the principal rooms of the house and the estate’s now-famous woods and lake. The volume served as Gregory’s personal farewell to Coole as she failed in health and as her last effort to celebrate and commemorate its heritage. The volume begins with Yeats’s “Coole Park, 1929,” his most magisterial meditation on Gregory’s “powerful character” and her influence on him and other writers of the Irish Revival.
