Under Milk Wood

'I could get drunk just on the sound of the words' Sylvia Plath
A definitive new edition of Dylan Thomas's beloved radio play
It is spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black, the cobblestreets silent...
In the Welsh seaside town of Llareggub, night is moving in the streets. Its inhabitants are lost in the land of dreams: old Captain Cat catches up with his drowned shipmates, Mog Edwards the draper is consumed by mad love for Miss Price the dressmaker, and Mrs Ogmore-Pritchard whips the ghosts of her two late husbands into shape. As the sun rises, the 'dismays and rainbows' of each character are played out within the cycle of one day, intertwining voices and lives, dreams and reality. By turns tender, hilarious and beautifully lyrical, Dylan Thomas's 'play for voices' is his most beloved work and a landmark of Welsh literature.

Notă biografică
Dylan Thomas was born in Swansea in 1914, 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.

Recenzii
A tour de force of oral poetry which oozes word pictures and onomatopoeic musicality
Dylan Thomas disturbed the roots of our language in an organic way and gave it a new vitality
Roguish, prancing, with blazing characters and lines. The words dizzied me, their grandeur, their wit
A dazzling combination of poetic fireworks and music-hall humor
It would be hard for any work of art to communicate more directly and funnily and lovingly what it is like to be alive
