Despre această carte electronică

The greatest Welsh poet of the twentieth century, Dylan Thomas harnessed the very music of language, giving voice to the inevitable shape of life, its joys and sorrows, losses and wonders. In rich, evocative language, his work captures the intricate beauty and complexities of human existence – from the haunting verses of ‘Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night’ to the nostalgic reverie of ‘Fern Hill’. Here, roadside bushes brim with whistling blackbirds, blind eyes blaze like meteors, love remains when lovers are lost and time ticks a heaven round the stars.

This new selection brings together poems from Thomas’ Collected Poems 1934–1952, published during his lifetime, along with a few rare gems that offer a deeper insight into his creative world and the enduring power of his poetic genius.

Despre autor

Dylan Thomas was born in 1914 in Swansea, where he worked as a reporter on the local newspaper. He published his first volume of poetry, 18 Poems, when he was just twenty years old. Thereafter, bohemian literary life in London alternated with some more positively creative periods back in Wales. He had a celebrated career as a writer for radio and film, and he continued to publish poetry and short stories. From 1950 onwards, Thomas’ attention was given mainly to completing his most famous work, Under Milk Wood: A Play for Voices. The poet died in New York in 1953 and is buried at Laugharne.
