On a dark moonless night in spring, the seaside town of Llareggub sleeps. Dreams of hope and heartache unfurl, revealing the innermost desires and fears of its inhabitants. But when morning arrives, the chaotic muddle of everyday life begins again: the hardships, the gossip, the quarrels, the moments of tenderness and love, all intertwined in a spectacular chorus of voices. A much loved and celebrated modern classic, Dylan Thomas originally wrote Under Milk Wood as a radio drama and it was first broadcast by the BBC in 1954. Since then, Thomas’s masterful and humorous depiction of his characters continues to entertain and resonate with readers today.

About Author

The reputation of Welsh poet Dylan Thomas (1914-1953) as one of the greatest poets of the twentieth century has not waned in the fifty years since his death. His work, noted for its lush metaphors, musicality, and playfulness within traditional forms, was largely responsible for modernizing poetic verse. Thomas also wrote captivating short stories, a novella, several screenplays and radio plays, as well as his delightful stage play, Under Milk Wood—all infused with his passion for the English language and his enduring love of Wales.
