Der Verlag über das Buch
A Holiday Classic
"There's so much music in his voice that it carries the listener along, enchanted by the sound of the words and the rich imagery." -New York Times
First recorded in 1952, this recording of Dylan Thomas reading his A Child's Christmas in Wales recalls the sights, smells, and sounds of a long-ago Christmas. Thomas's wonderful recollection of this holiday in the seaside of his youth is captured in this vivid performance. Whether sharing his wistful memory of a holiday spent with people long past, or addressing the perennial problem of our mortality, Thomas gives us great pleasure in our personal and common memories while affirming life with a resounding "Yes!".
Also included in this audio are five other selected poems, read by Dylan Thomas: "Fern Hill", "Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night", "In the White Giant's Thigh", "Ballad of the Long-Legged Bait", and "Ceremony after a Fire Raid"
"An unforgettable experience . . . ranks . . among the great expressions of the language." -Harper's -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine andere Ausgabe: Audio CD .

Christmas so often disappoints us. And why not? How could it ever live up to the sappy and maudlin presentations it suffers so often on TV, in the movies, even in commercials! Along comes Dylan Thomas (well he came along a while ago) and captures elements of the holiday that we can still live today. There is a town shut up against the cold with the occasional hardy soul braving the elements. There are families, rich in generations, sharing a day punctuated more by the telling of tales than the exchange of gifts. There are children overcoming their own fears of the unknown to give "Good King Wenceslaus" to a spectral figure behind a closed door. And there lies, on the final page and in the final line, an ending that captures all of what is best in the holiday and, maybe, what is best in all of us. Granted, until you hear the poet himself read this work, you will never capture the full effect, but you will come close. And you may be more ready for Christmas than you have ever been before.

Dylan Thomas has, well, how can I put it - a way with words. This is a delightful and extremely droll prose poem, without which Christmas just wouldn't be the same for me. And the author's reading voice is nothing short of magnificent.
Format:Hörkassette
Dylan Thomas made hours of recordings of his poems, stories and plays, but none of them is as endearingly personal as this distillation of his childhood Christmases in Swansea. And his performance is unforgettable. Put a log on the fire, and let Thomas's rich, deep voice take you straight to the heart of a child's Christmas.
