Under Milk Wood is the masterpiece radio play for voices Dylan
Thomas finished just before his death in 1953. First commissioned
by the BBC and broadcast in 1954, it has been performed and
celebrated by Anthony Hopkins, Richard Burton, Elton John, Tom
Jones, Catherine Zeta Jones, Elizabeth Taylor, Peter O Toole, and
many others. In Under Milk Wood, Thomas gave fullest expression to
his sense of the magnificent flavor and variety of life. A moving
and hilarious account of a spring day in a small Welsh town, the
play begins with dreams and ghosts before dawn and closes as the
rain of dusk brings on the bawdy night.
This new edition contains the definitive version of the play,
edited by the noted Dylan Thomas scholars Walford Davies and Ralph
Maud, with an in-depth introduction by Davies as well as extensive
and helpful textual and explanatory notes.
