Gill Books

Founded by Michael Gill in 1968, Gill Books, originally Gill & Macmillan, emerged as a beacon for Irish authors, earning praise from The Irish Times as a "welcome enterprise." Over the years, it became a home for acclaimed writers such as Noël Browne, Garrett Fitzgerald, Darina Allen, and Fintan O’Toole.

Spanning the Irish Zeitgeist, Gill Books has weathered both prosperous and challenging times, capturing every facet of Irish life. From the 1960s bestseller "Prayers of Life" to contemporary works like "The Pope’s Children" in 2005, each publication reflects a slice of its era.

The roots of Gill Books trace back to Michael Henry Gill, the great-great-grandfather, who, in 1856, purchased the publishing and bookselling business of James McGlashan. The bookshop, known as Gills, stood on Dublin’s O’Connell Street for 123 years, a testament to the enduring legacy of the Gill family in the literary landscape.

Through printing, publishing, and bookselling, Gill Books has consistently championed the belief that reading matters, leaving an indelible mark on Irish literature.

If you’re constantly being zapped by the idea that you can’t do something, or that you’re stupid or less important than somebody else, then eventually you’re going to start believing it.

When you have a difference, adapting to situations is a skill that you learn from a very young age. So when things happen now, and there might be a bit of panic, I’m able to think outside the box a lot more easily than other people because I have learned there is always more than one way of doing something.

Improving your self-esteem isn’t about becoming selfish, loud, competitive and arrogant. It’s about taking care of yourself so that you have the strength and energy to help and give to others when appropriate.
