  • Gebundenes Buch

Of all the modern holiday classics, this is perhaps the best known and best loved. In humorous, sonorous, nostalgic prose, Dylan Thomas recalls the church-going, the tree-trimming, the food, the carols and games, not of one childhood Christmas but of them all: he distills here the Perfect Dream of Christmas. For this edition, the immortal Edward Ardizzone produced 30 delightful watercolors and drawings (and if you're clever you can recognize Cardiff as the Welsh town in which the story is set) as a perfect counterpoint to Thomas's lilting words.

Autorenporträt
Dylan Thomas was among the most popular cultural figures of the 20th century for the poems Do not go gentle into that good night and And death shall have no dominion; the "play for voices" Under Milk Wood; and stories and radio broadcasts such as Portrait of the Artist as a Young Dogand, especially, A Child's Christmas in Wales.
