In February 1952, Welsh poet Dylan Thomas made a series of memorable and historic recordings on a new record label called Caedmon. Now, gathered together for the first time in a stunning boxed set, "Dylan Thomas: A Caedmon Collection" contains those original Caedmon recording sessions, as well as recordings from the BBC, CBC, and other archival material Caedmon originally published in the 1950s and 1960s. Abridged. 10 CDs.

About the Author

Dylan Thomas was born in Swansea, Wales on 27 October 1914. In 1934 his first book of poetry, Eighteen Poems appeared, followed by Twenty-five Poems in 1936, Deaths and Entrances in 1946 and in 1952 his final volume, Collected Poems. He also published many short stories, wrote filmscripts, broadcast stories and talks, did a series of lecture tours in the United States and wrote Under Milkwood, the radio play.

During his fourth lecture tour of the United States in 1953, a few days after his 39th birthday, he collapsed in his New York hotel and died on November 9th at St. Vincent's Hospital. His body was sent back to Laugharne, Wales, where his grave is marked by a simple wooden cross.

In June 1994, his wife, Caitlin Thomas, died in Italy, where she had spent most of the years of her life after the death of Dylan Thomas. Her body is buried next to his.
