Sex, murder, and a devastating, humour mark these three novellas that Gwyn Thomas wrote in 1946. Death, exploitation, and evil abound, and in 'The Dark philosophers' itself, the grimly humorous philosophers gather in an Italian cafe to tell a tragic tale of revenge and manslaughter.

'As if Thomas Hardy met Damon Runyon over a loving cup of small beer.' New York Herald Tribune, 1947

Gwyn Thomas was born in the Rhondda Valley, in 1913. Mass unemployment and widespread poverty in South Wales deepened his radicalism. After working for the Workers' Educational Association he became a teacher, first in Cardigan and from 1942 in Barry. In 1962 he left teaching and concentrated on writing and broadcasting. His many published works of fiction include The Dark Philosophers (1946); The Alone to the Alone(1947); and All Things Betray Thee(1949). He also wrote several collections of short stories, six stage plays and the autobiography A Few Selected Exits (1968).
