A hauntingly beautiful introduction to one of the greatest literary voices in Welsh history, this collection celebrates the intensely emotional and lyrical poetry of Dylan Thomas.
In a unique volume of selected poetry by Dylan Thomas, this anthology collects the most powerful and enchanting work from the Welsh writer. Born and raised in Swansea, Thomas was a soft, quiet, often-ill child, but rose to become a British media star and one of the most recognisable poets of the twentieth century. This collection breathes fresh life into his body of work, featuring masterful poems such as ‘In My Craft or Sullen Art’, ‘Fern Hill’, and ‘Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night’.
Ragged Hand proudly introduces this new edition of The Selected Poetry of Dylan Thomas, also featuring his introductory essay, ‘How to be a Poet’.
