Since 1996, Sam Adams's 'Letter from Wales' column has been
appearing in PN Review, one of the most highly-regarded UK poetry
magazines, offering insight and appreciation of Welsh writing,
culture and history. This landmark volume collects these letters -
a quarter century of work - and offers one of the most unique,
independent and passionate critical voices on the writing and
cultural output of Wales during this period. Here you will find
erudite appreciations of the work of a wide range of recent and
contemporary Welsh writers from Gillian Clarke to Roland Mathias,
RS Thomas to Rhian Edwards. Alongside this, Adams offers us lyric
essays to Welsh history, and clear-eyed examinations of the
institutions of Welsh culture. Collected for the first time in this
volume, the 'letters' are among the most significant and sustained
attempts during this period to present Welsh writing to an audience
throughout the UK and beyond.
