Correspondence

"Dylan Thomas's letters to the many women in his life are among the most beautiful and lyrical he wrote. From Wales, from London, from New York, from wherever the poet's life took him he wrote letters full of longing and separation. They are cajoling, apologetic, uninhibited, funny, tactical and loving." "This collection includes letters to Pamela, his first love, to Caitlin, his equally flamboyant wife, and to later loves, like Elizabeth Reitell, the woman who was with him on his last night.". "Like most great letter-writers, Thomas had the gift of writing as if his correspondent stood in front of him. Sensual and earthy, like so much of his poetry, his letters were all designed to secure Thomas's place in his lover's heart and memory - the purpose of all true love letters."--BOOK JACKET.
