Synopsis

We are not wholly bad or good, who live our lives under Milk Wood.
'Dazzling' New York Times

'A tour de force' Guardian

'Blazing' New Yorker

Under Milk Wood is Dylan Thomas's best-known and best-loved work, his radio play completed in 1953 at the very end of his life. It tells the story of a seaside village during one spring day, populated by a cast of curious characters who we meet while still asleep, having wild dreams. Then as dusk and darkness fall at the end of the day, we say 'Goodnight', tucking them back into bed, to sleep once more.

Lyrical, funny and moving, Under Milk Wood creates a rich modern pastoral, a tapestry of dreams and reality which has captured the imaginations of generations of readers.

A Welsh epic, a work of poetic genius, a modern classic.
