Almanac, No. 15 - Yearbook of Welsh Writing in English (Paperback, New)

Featuring new research by established and emerging critics, this stimulating academic journal aims to engage in a lively and informed way with both the Welsh literary past and with contemporary writing. This edition unearths some fascinating new material about the life and work of one of Wales's greatest 20th-century poets, R. S. Thomas, and compares his style to that of his Irish contemporary Samuel Beckett. Also included are essays on horror fiction and contemporary crime writing as well as a detailed analysis of Malcolm Pryce's detective fiction and an elegant exploration of the ways in which novelist Emyr Humphreys represents "old age." To complete this compilation is an indispensable annual bibliography of criticism in the field, continuing a longstanding tradition of providing readers with a range of thought-provoking and illuminating material.
