All That Is Wales by M Wynn Thomas

A collection of essays on a range of Welsh writers, both well-known and otherwise, by one of the leading specialists in the anglophone literary culture of Wales.
'In a characteristically generous and discerning collection of essays, MWynn Thomas ranges widely through Welsh writing in English, displaying in the process his marvellous command of language. This is criticism at its best, as sociable as it is perceptive.'- Catherine Belsey, Professor Emeritus in English, Swansea University; 'M. Wynn Thomas is more than just Wales's finest and most perceptive critic - he is one of the rare intellectuals who can be said to have founded a discipline, and nurtured it for others. All That Is Wales bears the hallmarks of Thomas's criticism - rigorously-written, closely-read and culturally-alive.'- Patrick McGuinness, Professor of French and Comparative Literature, University of Oxford
M. Wynn Thomas is Professor of English and Emyr Humphreys Professor of English at Swansea University. He is a Fellow of the British Academy, and is the author of twenty books on American poetry and on the two literatures of Wales.
