Dylan Thomas' short story A Child's Christmas in Wales is one of the 20th century's favourite works of literature a loving, nostalgic look back to the childhood of a Welshman who went on to conquer the world with his magnificent poetry, before his untimely, alcohol-related death still short of his 40th birthday. This is a Wales of the imagination, a beautiful, timeless place where the bustle of Christmas is captured in poignant detail. Narrated in a glorious Welsh lilt by respected literary professor and experienced Thomas-reader, Gareth Griffiths, and with musical interludes from Carisma, this brand-new recording is a Christmas album like no other, and one to treasure.
