About this copy

Dylan Thomas's beloved 'play for voices' takes us into Llareggub, a Welsh seaside village where the dreams, desires and quarrels of its townsfolk unfold over a single day and night. Written with astonishing music and wit, it is one of the most enchanting works ever created for radio, and it remains a favourite on the stage and page alike. Richard Hughes called it a major work, and generations of readers have returned to its rich, earthy language again and again.

This is the Aldine Paperback edition, complete with its cover design and the original 5s. net price. A tidy, readable copy with a tight binding and clean text, ready for its next reader.

Condition

Book
Good. Tight binding and clean pages with light age toning. The card wrappers show rubbing, small stains and spine creasing, and there is some pencilled address writing on the blank first leaf.

A pre-owned book; any wear beyond that described is minor and in keeping with its age.
