Dylan Thomas was born in Swansea on 27 October 1914, the son of a senior English master. On leaving school he worked on the South Wales Evening Post before embarking on his literary career in London. Not only a poet, he wrote short stories, film scripts, features and radio plays, the most famous being UNDER MILK WOOD and A CHILD'S CHRISTMAS IN WALES. On 9 November 1953, shortly after his thirty-ninth birthday, Dylan Thomas died in New York city. He is buried in Laugharne, Carmarthenshire, which had become his main home since 1949. In 1982 a memorial stone to commemorate him was unveiled in 'Poet's Corner' in Westminster Abbey.
MY WIFE IS GOING DALLAS TO UTSW CANCER CENTER AND SHE LOVES TO READ THE POEMS IN THE BOOK.........THE POET WAS A WONDERFUL WRITER......HIS POEMS GREAT AND MY WIFE WILL ENJOU EVERY WORD ......GREAT BOOK
The title in the listing is not the title of this book!
As printed on the title page of this little book, the actual title is "Dylan Thomas." "The Last Three Minutes" appears nowhere. Although this edition includes biographical information, the selected 65 poems are not given any critical analysis or explication. And I can find no explanation of why these particular poems are selected and not others. It seems arbitrary and the book seems useless. Why not just buy Thomas' complete poems?
