Dylan Thomas remains one of the most celebrated Welsh poets of the 20th century, whose rich, musical prose and intoxicating wordplay brought the English language alive in ways few have matched. His masterwork Under Milk Wood, written for radio, captures an entire community in a single day through verse that is by turns hilarious, tender, and profoundly human.
