Dylan Thomas at the BBC

Dylan Thomas is one of this century's most celebrated poets. His rich rhetoric created poems of magical imagery - nowhere is language more rich and fantastic than in his best-known work, Under Milk Wood. He was also a popular radio entertainer and the BBC Archives contain a wealth of material featuring Dylan Thomas - not only readings of his own work, but also dramatic readings of other work such as Dr Faustus. These, together with interviews with the poet, form a fascinating audio portrait of a brilliant man.
