A Child's Christmas in Wales Résumé

A Child's Christmas in Wales Dylan Thomas

A holiday classic in an elegant New Directions edition. With lovely poetic lilt, this simple tale captures the child-eye view and an adult's warm remembrance of the time of presents, good things to eat, and, in the best of circumstances, newly-fallen snow-its wonder and its snowball mischief. This elegant and beautifully designed New Directions edition of Thomas's holiday classic features evocative woodcut illustrations by the noted artist Fritz Eichenberg.

À propos de Dylan Thomas

Dylan Thomas, born in Swansea in 1914, is perhaps Wales' best-known writer, widely considered to be one of the major poets of the 20th century, and many of his greatest poems, such as 'Fern Hill' and 'Do not go gentle into that good night' remain among the nation's favorites. As well as poetry, Dylan Thomas wrote numerous short stories and scripts for film and radio - none more popular than his radio play UNDER MILK WOOD (ISBN 9780811229937), which is considered by many to be his masterpiece. He led a fascinating and tempestuous life, permeated by love affairs and reckless bouts of drinking, which led him to claim that he had beast, angel and madman within him. There have been several film adaptations of his fascinating life, which ended all too soon in 1953 when he collapsed and died in New York shortly after his 39th birthday. A memorial stone commemorating his life and work was unveiled in Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey in 1982.
