Book Club Edition "Few poets have excited such extremes of admiration and hostility as Dylan Thomas, the Welshman who was perhaps the greatest lyric poet of our century. Thomas persisted to the end in fostering an image of the poet as an intense and decadent individual. He lived in poverty despite his considerable income and shocked his public with his love affairs and drinking while demanding recognition as an artist. But whenever this difficult man read his works, he was accepted on his own terms - his audiences were enthralled. Paul Ferris's authoritative new biography is based on a wealth of previously unpublished material (including two poems) gathered by the author in more than two hundred interviews and extensive research in Britain and America" [from the dust jacket].
