Paul Ferris, Foreword, 02.00
"The quality of the material that the author has uncovered will make Thomas's biographers, and certainly makes me, aware of things they wish they hadn't missed ... a work of authority; not to mention charm"
Book Description
Drawing on extensive research and interviews with people who knew Dylan Thomas when he lived in the Aeron Valley and Newquay, David Thomas has uncovered exciting new material which will surprise Dylan fans and scholars alike, including a note-book version of 'Unluckily for a death", further connections with T.S. Eliot, and material which allows fresh, informed speculation about the state of Dylan's mind before the final trip to the United States. The text is illustrated with 80 photographs - most previously unseen - of the influential circle of friends Thomas had in Cardiganshire, and the surroundings which were of crucial importance to his writing there and afterwards.
