Dylan Thomas' Writing Shed in Laugharne

"There is a story of the friend in the funeral parlour, who looked down at the poet's painted face, loud suit and carnation in his buttonhole, only to declare, "He would never have been seen dead in it."

"Dylan loves to shock, to wound, to kill, but he finds himself in the end a puritan, maimed in the gut, killed by his own boozing and indiscretions."

Quotations from Dylan Thomas Poet of His People* by Andrew Sinclair.
