Et venir & être avec moi quelque part, ne serait-ce pour je ne sais combien de temps.
S'il te plaît, Caitlin, ma chère.
Dylan Thomas « Ces mots ne sont pas les mots qui expriment ce que je veux exprimer, mais ce sont les seuls que je trouve qui disent la moitié de ce que je veux exprimer. Et ça ne va pas. Je ne suis qu'un grotesque usager des mots, pas un poète. Voilà la vérité. Inutile de s'apitoyer sur moi. » Dylan Thomas (1914-1953), Lettre à Pamela Johnson, 8 mai 1934.

À l'ombre du bois lacté, le petit port gallois de Llareggub s'endort au crépuscule sans lune. Saisies au coeur de leurs songes, les voix villageoises s'élèvent, se mêlent et tissent une danse lyrique : il y a là l'instituteur et le tavernier, le facteur et le cordonnier, les épouses, les jeunes filles et la femme de peu, le vieux marin et ses fantômes, une ribambelle de petits mômes, des rêves de mariage et de poison, de poème et de boisson, qui tous disent la beauté fragile du monde, pour nous qui prêtons une oreille indiscrète.

An ideal introduction to the poetry of one of this country's finest ever poets and featuring a bold new livery in celebration of the Dylan Thomas centenary. This collection features perhaps Dylan Thomas' best-known poem, 'Fern Hill' - a profoundly melancholic and wistful meditation on former times; set in the idyllic Carmarthenshire dairy farm owned by his aunt and uncle when he was a boy. Another beloved poem 'Do not go gentle into that good night' was written by the poet for his dying father, exploring the themes of grief, loss and death.

- 12 Mai 2016
- 9781780227238
Like Shakespeare and Joyce before him, Dylan Thomas expanded our sense of what the English language can do. Rhythmically forceful yet subtly musical and full of memorable lines, his poems are anthology favourites; his 'play for voices' Under Milk Wood a modern classic. Much loved by The Beatles and Bob Dylan, he is a cultural icon and continues to inspire artists today. This new edition, released to commemorate the centenary of Thomas's birth, collects more of his poems together in a single volume than ever before. With recently discovered material and accessible critique from Dylan Thomas expert John Goodby, it looks at Thomas's body of work in a fresh light, taking us to the beating heart of his poetry.
