Gwyn Thomas, aclamado como 'la verdadera voz de los valles de habla inglesa', capturó la vida en el sur de Gales con agudo ingenio y profunda empatía. Sus obras se adentraron en las luchas sociales y económicas de la región, explorando a menudo la resiliencia humana frente a la adversidad. El estilo distintivo de Thomas, caracterizado por diálogos vívidos y una prosa rica y evocadora, dio vida a la atmósfera única de su tierra natal. A través de sus novelas y cuentos, ofreció una visión inquebrantable de las vidas de la gente común y su persistente búsqueda de dignidad y sentido.
With passion, humour and remarkable insight, Gwyn Thomas captures the world of south Wales in the 1830s during the turbulent years of the Merthyr and Newport Risings. This is a new edition of a novel first published in 1949, with an introduction by Raymond Williams.
Offers the underlying meaning of South Wales' history. This title, with its plural narration, presents a choric commentary on human illusion and knowledge, on power and its attendant deprivation, on dreams and their destruction. It is History as Carnival and a comic vision of humanity that recognises no geographical boundaries.
Sex, murder, and a devastating, humour mark these three novellas that Gwyn Thomas wrote in 1946.
Reissue of the celebrated Welsh writer's seminal short novel, repackaged with a stunning new cover. Introduction by acclaimed Welsh academic and historian Daryl Leeworthy.
