The Love Letters of Dylan Thomas

Sunday February 8, 2004
The Love Letters of Dylan ThomasA classic Welsh writer, Dylan Thomas is one of the greatest poets of the 20th century. He once wrote of himself: "I hold a beast, an angel, and a madman in me, and my inquiry is as to their working, and my problem is their subjugation and victory, downthrow and upheaval, and my effort is their self expression."

A self-described "scrubby Welshman," Thomas lived life to the fullest, expressing his passion through his poetry, letters and other works. This volume of love letters shows something of the personal life of Dylan Thomas: his loves, hates, and insecurities. Read the full review: The Love Letters of Dylan Thomas.
