Paperback. Condizione: New. New edition. Poet, novelist, playwright, diaryist, anthologist and broadcaster, Dannie Abse has contributed hugely to literature in Britain. In There was a Young Man from Cardiff he presents a series of deceptions - or are they? - which ask about the nature of 'truth' and 'reality'.Characters and events materialise and change as though a mist swirls around them: twins appear and disappear in 'Madagascar'; 'The Marvellous Girl' echoes the 'marvellous boy' of Chatterton, whose writing fooled the literary world. Behind these fictions is the young Dannie, newly qualified doctor struggling to grasp the post-war world of adults, relationships, family and illness. His progress towards a better understanding of life is mirrored by his development as a writer. Charming, quirky, Dannie Abse's fiction is a world in which everyday surfaces are underlain by the strange, scarcely understood currents of human nature.Dannie Abse (b. 1923) was born in Cardiff and studied Medicine at Cardiff, King's College and Westminster Hospital. A poet, novelist, playwright, he has also published diaries and autobiography. He has published eleven volumes of poetry including a Collected Poems.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Alun Lewis (1915-1944), the remarkable poet and story writer, died, aged 28, in Burma during the Second World War. Some critics see him as the last of the great Romantic poets, a twentieth century Keats. Others view him as the bridge between pre-war poets like Auden and Yeats to post-war poets such as Hughes and Gunn. He was born and raised in Depression-struck south Wales and, following degrees in history at Aberystwyth and Manchester, became a teacher there. Early in 1940, despite his pacifist inclinations he enlisted and, after long periods of training, joined the war in India.Becoming a soldier galvanised Lewis's writing. By 1944 he had written two collections of poems and one of short stories, all published to considerable acclaim. Firmly established with Keith Douglas as the leading writer of the Second World War, Lewis's death in an accident while on active service was a huge loss to English literature. This Collected Poems comprises a body of work which has endured and which transcends the label 'war poetry'; it is complete in itself and full of promise of greater things."Always, one feels the pressure of integrity behind his writing. And in elegising Lewis's promise we should not overlook his actual achievement"M Wynn Thomas, The Guardian Part of the uniform edition of Lewis's work, this volume contains the complete texts of his two collections 'Raiders' Dawn' and 'Ha! Ha! Among the Trumpets'. It also includes 27 previously uncollected poems. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Alun Lewis (1915-1944) was one of the few great British writers of the Second World War. His early death at the age of twenty-eight robbed Wales of its most promising poet and story writer. Although he had been writing since an early age, becoming a soldier had a stimulating effect on Lewis's writing: his first book of poems, Raiders' Dawn, was published in 1942, and The Last Inspection, a collection of stories, appeared in the same year, alerting critics and editors to the arrival of a new war writer. Both books are characterised by vivid realism and emotional power.Later in 1942 Lewis's new regiment, the South Wales Borderers, travelled to India. His experiences there are recreated in the beautiful poems of Ha! Ha! Among the Trumpets and the stories and letters of In the Green Tree. On the reputation of these four books Alun Lewis is widely seen, with Keith Douglas, as the outstanding writer of World War Two.Collected Stories reprints the war stories in their entirety for the first time. It also collects stories published in student magazines and newspapers such as The Guardian, together with several previously unseen.

In Wales there are those who think his greater versatility and finer intelligence place him above his contemporaries Dylan Thomas and R.S. Thomas. Lewis emerged as a story writer of maturity during WWII. His first collection, The Last Inspection, was published in 1942; his later stories were collected posthumously in The Green Tree in 1948. Often anthologized, these have been unavailable for over forty years, though his poems have been reprinted. This contains all of the stories from these two books, as well as all those published in magazines since 1929. Seven unpublished stories are also included from more than forty left in manuscript form. His work bears comparison with that of Katherine Mansfield and Dylan Thomas.
