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.
This is a short story book. This book was published 1990 by HarperCollins Publishers .
Dylan Thomas was born in 1914 in Swansea. During his lifetime he wrote many great poems, including 'Fern Hill', 'The Hunchback in the Park' and 'Do not go gentle into that good night'.
