This poet, short-story writer, and journalist was outspoken and often controversial, and the passion and vigour expressed in his writings often overflowed into his personal life. -- Cyngor Llyfrau Cymru
'John Tripp and Dylan Thomas swam in the same seaHe may not have been as famous as his elder compatriot but in terms of volume his output was similar. He had a voice that was good on the ear, drank gallons, had the same kind of difficulties with money.' Peter Finch
