A selection of the very best poems and stories by celebrated Welsh poet Dylan Thomas.
This superb compilation opens with his enchanting story A Child's Christmas in Wales. This classic tale recalls magical days full of family, snowy countryside and the magic of Christmas, inspired by the author's childhood growing up in Wales.
Thomas also revisits his childhood in his series of stories Portrait of the Artist as a Young Dog, in which he brilliantly evokes his young life through boyhood and adolescence to emerge as a young man in a series of vivid, uncompromising, and lyrical stories peopled with finely drawn characters and which give a brilliant account of growing up.
Then come the poems, each one carefully chosen and featuring such greats as "And death shall have no dominion," "Fern Hill," and "Do not go gently into that good night."
Dylan Thomas was a phenomenal twentieth-century bard, able to get to the root of people's lives and to express human emotions with intense skill and originality. He is remembered for his love of words and a startling inventiveness, which has yet to be beaten.
Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library, a series of stunning, pocket-sized classics bound in real cloth with ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover.
