The Outing by Dylan Thomas
This account of a summer outing by Dylan Thomas is reissued in a gift format with a new jacket. Set around an outing by charabanc to Porthcawl, Dylan finds himself joining a thinly disguised pub crawl through Wales. Instead of Porthcawl, however, they end up paddling in the river.
Dylan Thomas was born in Swansea on 27 October 1914, the son of a senior English master. On leaving school he worked on the South Wales Evening Post before embarking on his literary career in London. Not only a poet, he wrote short stories, film scripts, features and radio plays, the most famous being Under Milk Wood. On 9 November 1953, shortly after his thirty-ninth birthday, he collapsed and died in New York city. He is buried in Laugharne, Carmarthenshire, which had become his main home since 1949. In 1982 a memorial stone to commemorate him was unveiled in 'Poet's Corner' in Westminster Abbey.
