the controversial truth about Dylan Thomas
Presented by Josh Brown
This talk, based on his controversial and ground-breaking book demolishes popular and persistent myths about Wales’s greatest poet. Josh presents Dylan Thomas as a revolutionary figure in modern literature who democratised poetry, leading the way for performance poetry an Rap, with a uniquely personal view of the world, based on political convictions and ancient bardic traditions, reshaped for the modern era.
