Dylan Thomas by David Rowe

Dylan Thomas by David Rowe

Fully illustrated introduction to the life and writings of Dylan Thomas, a writer and poet beloved not only in his native Wales but also in the USA, where he toured extensively. Wild Welsh boy who roared through his brief life; doomed poet who praised the fleeting beauty of youth and innocence; sensitive, misunderstood artist: which of these images is nearest to the real Dylan Thomas? This book offers new readers a taste of the great writer's own words. Snippets from the poems, stories and the acclaimed play Under Milk Wood - later made into a lyrical film starring Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor - will leave you wanting to read more. It is also a book of striking and memorable photographs: of the places, the people and the experience of Wales which so influenced Dylan. And at the center of the story is the man himself, aptly described by his friend Vernon Watkins as 'the serious survivor of all his myths'.
