Items related to Under Milk Wood
Originally commissioned by the BBC, and described by Dylan Thomas as 'a play for voices', UNDER MILK WOOD is an emotive and hilarious account of a spring day in the fictional Welsh seaside village of Llareggub.
We learn of the inhabitants' dreams and desires, their loves and regrets. We meet Captain Cat, who dreams of his drowned former seafellows, and Nogood Boyo, who dreams of nothing at all. A unique and touching depiction of a village that has 'fallen head over bells in love' UNDER MILK WOOD is a modern classic that continues to inspire readers and performers a century after Thomas's birth.
This special gift edition of Dylan Thomas's most famous work, published to coincide with the centenary of his birth, is introduced by Catherine Zeta-Jones and features quotes from Owen Sheers, Cerys Matthews and Terry Jones.

Review:
It would be hard for any work of art to communciate more directly and funnily and lovingly what it is like to be alive A dazzling combination of poetic fireworks and music-hall humor - NEW YORK TIMES Probably the richest and certainly the earthiest theatre experience of the season - SATURDAY REVIEW Dylan Thomas's writing was undeniably a seismic event in world literature and continues to attract readers across the globe I sometimes feel like a moth around the light of Dylan Thomas, his poetry, prose and plays loom large in my life, both at home and professionally. I am passionate about sharing his brilliance with people all over the world Dylan's fun and fascination with words reflects my own love of poetry . . . a true master of the English language, and a source of inspiration for many generations to come
