Dylan Thomas and the Writing Shed is about Swansea, Wales, the birthplace of Dylan Thomas and the 2014 Centennial celebration. Inside the shed, Dylan would write his last poems facing the bay. Every item inside the shed has a story to tell. Dylan would be the first media poet-with poems, plays, short stories, radio broadcasts, newspaper articles-and he would survive two world wars. We get to walk around Swansea and learn about the terrain, the copper mines, and the immigrant sanctuary. Sometimes the voice is Dylan, and other times it is someone else. The poems visit his birth house, the park across the street, and provide flashbacks to the London bombing that inspired his poem, "A Refusal to Mourn the Death, By Fire, of a Child in London." The poems in this collection include stained glass artwork inspired by Dylan Thomas and Martin's international prize-winning poem, "Daffodils."
