Then as dusk and darkness fall at the end of the day, we say 'Goodnight', tucking them back into bed, to sleep once more.Lyrical, funny and moving, Under Milk Wood creates a rich modern pastoral, a tapestry of dreams and reality which has captured the imaginations of generations of readers.A Welsh epic, a work of poetic genius, a modern classic.

Mer om författaren

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 39th 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 'Poets' Corner' in Westminster Abbey.www.discoverdylanthomas.com
