One of the outstanding literary figures of the twentieth century,
the Welsh poet and playwright Dylan Thomas is as famous for his
poetry as he is for his dissolute, Bohemian lifestyle and
tempestuous personal life. In The Three Lives of Dylan Thomas,
journalist Hilly Janes explores the poet's life and extraordinary
legacy through the eyes of her father, the artist Alfred Janes. A
member of Thomas's inner circle, he painted the poet at three key
moments: in 1934, 1953 and, posthumously in 1964, portraits which
are at the heart of Janes' work. Drawing on her own personal
archive, including drawings, diaries, letters and new interviews
with Thomas's friends and descendants, The Three Lives of Dylan
Thomas traces the course of the poet's life, from his birthplace in
Swansea to his untimely death in a New York hospital in 1953.
