Don't Go Meekly into That Good Night: the Collected Poems of Dylan Thomas (1934-1952)
About This Novel
Dylan went against the rational color of British poetry and sprinkled a kind of Gothic barbarism to express the natural growth force and the rhythm of human nature. His personalized "process poetics" revolves around the three major themes of life, desire and death, and incorporates Christian theological revelation, metaphysical mysticism, Welsh heptad poetry and homophony, as well as the Druids' legacy in Celtic cultural beliefs. Throughout his life, he creatively used various verbal techniques and mixed surrealist style to open a new chapter in the history of British and American poetry. As a rebellious cultural icon of a generation, he is like a meteor streaking across the dark sky of the "Cold War" era and will never be forgotten.
