Dylan Thomas's indulgent friends would describe him as an eccentric whose defiance of social convention was a natural extension of his over-fertile imagination. Others were more blunt, calling him a liar, a scrounger, a coward and a thief. Highlighting some of the complexities and paradoxes in the poet's character, this biography discusses how, for instance, this apparent drop-out from society nonetheless appreciated the Establishment's lifestyle enough to join the National Liberal Club, send his eldest child to a public school and enjoy afternoons watching cricket at Lord's.
