RS Thomas è stato il più grande poeta religioso che ha scritto in inglese nel XX secolo, ma le 270 poesie che ha scelto per questa selezione definitiva rivelano un'ampia gamma di temi e preoccupazioni. Era un appassionato patriota gallese, ma anche un critico schietto dei suoi connazionali. Le sue poesie sono un'espressione della sua discussione con se stesso durata tutta la vita, della sua insistente ricerca di Dio. In esse si confronta con idee di gallesità, con problemi di tecnologia, inquinamento, declino della cultura. Ha scritto anche di amore, di paesaggio, natura e uccelli. La sua è una voce urgente, profetica e unica.
