A few selected exits by Gwyn Thomas
An Autumn 1993 Public Television Presentation Starring Anthony Hopkins. Thomas (1913-1981), a prolific and versatile Welsh writer, gave this work the subtitle 'An Autobiography of Sorts' an apt description, since it tells more about the author himself than about his life. Many digressions, and digressions from digressions, occur. In these comic episodes he uses a cast of hilarious characters to describe his youth in a south Wales mining valley during the depression of the 1920s and 30s. His varied pursuits provided ample material for his exhilarating anecdotes, full of mordant wit and trenchant observations.
Gwyn Thomas is the author of numerous short story collections, six stage plays, an autobiography, A Few Selected Exits, and the novels All Things Betray Thee, The Dark Philosophers, Now Lead Us Home, and The World Cannot Hear You.
