Dylan Thomas’ reading on this recording elevated A Child’s Christmas in Wales from casually dismissed prose, written by a poet to keep the wolf from the door, to new genre, of literature to be performed.

It is now Thomas’ most widely known work, a wistful, tender, touching, wide-eyed in wonder evocation of the sights, smells and sounds of a child’s Christmas in a seaside town in Wales.

Review:

“Dylan Thomas’s reading of his Child’s Christmas in Wales is jam-packed with strong, unexpected images. It is observant yet humourous and it will certainly put you in festive mood.”
Good Book Guide December 1996
