That sounds like a wonderful visit for anyone who's ever been charmed by the poetry, and poetic prose, of Thomas. I was such a fan that I named my son Dylan. Some people ask him if he's named for Bob Dylan, but of course Bob Dylan changed his last name from Zimmerman because of Dylan Thomas. Merry Christmas to Swansea from Hawaii. Mele Kalikimaka!

You are absolutely right. The only way to enjoy his works is to listen or read aloud. I'm looking forward to "A . . . . christmas in Wales" in a couple of weeks, here in Swansea where Dylan Thomas grew up and started his writings. regards Mike I came across your blog and am sure you and some of your readers will want to know about the Dylan Thomas Experience where we are planning to bring visitors from around the world to bath in and enjoy the world of Dylan Thomas.
