Under Milk Wood is Dylan Thomas's best-known and best-loved work, his radio play completed in 1953 at the very end of his life. Portrait of the Artist as a Young Dog is his first collection solely of short stories, published in 1940. These two works show us his remarkable creative brilliance at the start and at the end of a highly productive writing life.
Thomas described Under Milk Wood variously as 'a play, an impression for voices, an entertainment out of the darkness'. It had its most famous incarnation as a radio play, broadcast in 1954, only months after its author's death. This is the text used for that broadcast. Full of the comedy of human existence, it also strikes notes of poignancy and loss as we travel through twenty-four hours in the company of those who inhabit the 'multifariously busy little town'. It is an affectionate vision of the 'drinks and loves and quarrels and dreams and wishes' of people very much like ourselves. Portrait of the Artist as a Young Dog is a semi-autobiographical collection of stories set in and around the Swansea of Thomas's youth. They are narratively engaging, full of a pleasure in ordinary existence, and an even greater pleasure in the power of the imagination.Noch keine Bewertungen vorhanden
