This pocket-sized collection of ethereal nature poetry from Dylan Thomas unveils his deep appreciation for the beauty of nature and the natural world.

Growing up in the Welsh countryside, Dylan Thomas always felt an intimate connection to the natural world, and this childhood appreciation for nature motivated his writing. The poetry featured in this collection, including 'Here in this Spring', 'Poem in October', and 'Fern Hill', highlight not only Thomas' profound love of the natural world but also his morbid obsession with death and how the two overlap and intertwine.

Ragged Hand proudly introduces this new, pocket-sized collection of poetry by Dylan Thomas, celebrating the masterful writing of one of the most important literary voices in Welsh history.

Industry Reviews

'Dylan Thomas is a young English poet whose work produced excited cries from young American poets..' -The Nation, September 18, 1943

'Thomas has the bardic consciousness: he writes a personal lyric in which the sense of his own history and name is surrounded by strange lights and glooms, and if his poems are often obscure, it is that they obey nocturnal laws. His poetry exists in a world in which the sexual forces of nature, the shifting tides and currents for which the individual cannot fully account but to which the passion of his being is finally responsible, override the merely personal clamor.' -The Nation, May 2, 1953

'It need no longer be eccentric to claim that Thomas is the greatest living poet in the English language.'-Philip Toynbee (The Nation, May 2, 1953)
