Dylan Thomas Famous Poems
Welshman Dylan Thomas was a reporter and prominent writer in the early 20th century. His most famous poem, “Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night,” was published in 1952, but his reputation was solidified years earlier. Thomas’ prose includes Under Milk Wood and A Child’s Christmas in Wales, both from the mid-1950s. The poet was in high demand for his animated readings, but debt and heavy drinking took their toll. He died young, aged 39, in New York City while on tour in 1953.
