Dylan Thomas (1914-1953), one of the greatest poets and storytellers of the twentieth century, captures a child's-eye view and an adult's fond memories of a magical time of presents, aunts and uncles, the frozen sea, and in the best of circumstances, newly fallen snow.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eThomas, Dylan:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDylan Thomas\u003c\/strong\u003e, born in Swansea in 1914, is perhaps Wales' best-known writer, widely considered to be one of the major poets of the 20th century: many of his greatest poems, such as \"Fern Hill\" and \"'Do not go gentle into that good night\"' are beloved and widely studied.
