'Rage against the dying of the light': Celebrating a century of Dylan Thomas


This year’s centenary of Welsh poet Dylan Thomas’ birth is being celebrated with events that pay tribute to his literary legacy.

The year-long commemoration has already inspired a new, television version of Thomas’ radio play Under Milk Wood starring veteran singer Tom Jones, and an opera based on the same work. A whole new dictionary of Thomas-style invented words suggested by the public is also in the pipeline.
