About the Author
The Welsh poet Dylan Thomas (1914–1953) was one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century. His work, noted for its lush metaphors, musicality, and playfulness within traditional forms, was largely responsible for modernizing poetic verse.
From Library Journal
With these volumes, New Directions launches its new "Bibelots" series. The purpose of the "Bibelots" is to reprint small sections from existing titles by prestigious authors at a reasonable price. Firbank's Caprice first appeared in Three More Novels , Miller's Devil was gleaned from 1957's Big Sur and the Oranges of Hieronymus , and the Thomas shorts were lifted from a larger Collected Stories anthology. For academic and public libraries specializing in hardcore literature, particularly those needing multiple copies, the "Bibelots" series offers an affordable alternative to the higher-priced full texts. Recommended accordingly.
