Dylan Thomas

Dylan Thomas (1914-1953) was a Welsh poet and writer renowned for his lyrical, rhythmic poetry and prose works like 'A Child's Christmas in Wales.' Born in Swansea, he left school at 16 to work as a reporter before dedicating himself to poetry, publishing his acclaimed debut '18 Poems' in 1934 and gaining fame in London and the U.S. through readings and broadcasts, though his life was marked by bohemian excess and heavy drinking, leading to his death at 39 in New York.
