Come What May

Penguin Shop: 3 Clothbound Classics for £33

This is not simply one of the best and most readable sports books to be published anywhere this year, it is one of the best and most important books to be published in Ireland this year

Dónal Óg Cusack is on a par with Roy Keane in the ranks of Rebel sportsmen ... Ferociously dedicated but divisive, he's delivered a book just as intense, controversial ... as Keano did in the wake of Saipan

The Autobiography

Dónal Óg Cusack is the most compelling and controversial figure in the GAA today. In Come What May, Dónal Óg tells the story of the highs and lows on the pitch - including three All-Ireland victories - and off it with candour and courage. This is a book about friendship and loyalty and conflict and being true to yourself. It is unlike any other Irish sporting memoir ever published.

Dónal Óg Cusack has been one of Ireland's leading hurlers for the past decade, winning five Munster titles and three All-Ireland medals with Cork, and establishing himself as one of the game's most compelling and articulate figures. In this book, he tells the story of his life and extraordinary career.
