Dylan Thomas: Collected Poems

 This final book is one that closes out this 2025 year was written by a TRUE, brilliant literary mind. It is so much more than just a book of poetry; it's an array of this brilliant minds entire collection. From one of the literary minds throughout history; this is 1 of the BEST literary collections of composer Dylan Thomas. 

Before its publication, Thomas died from swelling of the brain triggered by excessive drinking. Since its initial publication in 1953, this book has become the definitive collector's edition of the poet's work. 

Thomas wrote "Prologue" addressed to "my readers, the strangers" -- an introduction in verse that was the last poem he would ever write. Also included are classics such as "And Death Shall Have No Dominion." "Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night," and "Fern Hill" that have influenced generations of artists from Bob Dylan (who changed his last name from Zimmerman in honor of the poet), to John Lennon (The Beatles included Thomas' portrait on the cover of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band).
