From Rhondda heroes chasing the American dream to rioters staking a
claim in their society In the Frame is a powerful alternative
history of twentieth-century South Wales, offered from the personal
viewpoint of cultural historian Dai Smith. It takes the reader into
a territory - a mythical and veritable Dai Country - formed by the
influence of writers and painters, boxers and historians, friends
and relatives, rioters and correspondents, critics and
photographers. As well as the autobiographical overtones of a
Tondypandy childhood and distinguished career, In the Frame
contains the far wider undertones of a collective biography. Its
mosaic pieces together the consciousness of a society which led its
inhabitants in search of fame and fortune as well as the daily
struggle for rights and recognition without sympathy or
sentimentality. An alternative history of twentieth century Wales
by TV presenter and the nation's leading cultural historian Dai
Smith.
