Under Milk Wood by Dylan Thomas. London: J.M. Dent & Sons, [1954]. First edition, fourth impression.

A lyrical imagining of a Welsh seaside village, Under Milk Wood is both ethereal and earthy, revelling in its flamboyant poetry and multifarious cast of lovingly evoked characters. Dylan Thomas’s legendary radio play only matures with age.

Condition

Publisher's original cloth binding with gilt lettering to spine. Externally in very good condition with some light crushing to spine tips. Foxing to edges and prelims, but otherwise clean and without inscriptions of any kind. Binding is tight. Presenting well in a good, unclipped dust wrapper with bright panels, but mildly sunned spine. Some chipping, creasing and small tears (now repaired with a small amount of archival repair tape) to edges, including some loss, as photographed. Foxing to inside and outside of dust wrapper. The wrapper has now been placed in a 50-micron sleeve of archival quality to protect it for the future (easily removable if desired).
