Wales in Verse

Unknown Author

4.9/5 (28814 ratings)

Description:The poems chosen by Dannie Abse to depict Wales in verse are, in the main, about the landscape of different Welsh locations. The mountains and the small nameless mining valleys; the pitheads and the pubs; the great castles and bays and peninsulas of the coast are celebrated or cursed in this anthology.But Wales is more than the contours of its landscape, and the Welsh people, themselves, are also spotlit: their attitudes and customs, that which is reassuringly general and that which is wonderfully particular. The reader of these poems is invited to thrill to the Welsh way with words (and sometimes gently to laugh at it), and to apprehend the sense of Wales' vivid past—whether the journey back prove a sweet or a sour one.Visitors to Wales will relish these portrayals, and those native to Wales will recognize in them authentic fresh definitions, which will yield enduring pleasure.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
