The most legendary names in poetry from Wales - David Jones, Idris
Davies, Vernon Watkins, RS Thomas, Dylan Thomas and Alun Lewis -
are featured here alongside many living greats such as Dannie Abse,
Tony Conran, Gillian Carke, Tony Curtis, Robert Minhinnick and
Gwyneth Lewis. Every decade of the century is featured, as is
almost every part of Wales - urban, industrial and rural - and many
of the poems reflect our history from Edwardian times to the
post-industrial present. Biographical notes are provided for all
the poets. A few lesser names have been selected to suggest
continuity and the changing literary scene over the century. Wales
now has a rich, vibrant and varied literature in English and this
anthology reflects it comprehensive, authoritative and lively way.
