W1T 1JB - Launch of Discovering Dylan Thomas: A Companion to the Collected Poems and Notebook Poems by John Goodby and Ugly, Lovely by Hilly Janes.
John Goodby will launch his new book from University of Wales Press at The Wheatsheaf, and Hilly Janes will join with launching Ugly, Lovely (Parthian). Goodby’s book contains the very first appearance of material from Dylan’s fifth notebook, discovered in 2014. It therefore includes previously unseen material – no new poems as such, but whole verses and lines he cut from poems before they were published. It also includes material from previously unknown library archives.
The Wheatsheaf, 5.30pm-7.30pm
Free to attend. Supported by Literature Wales.
