Von der hinteren Coverseite

Pondering now the being and nature of God, now the mystery of time, now the assault of contemporary lifestyles on the natural world, R. S. Thomas's poetry and prose reflects his Welsh heritage and his determination to be Welsh. Moved by his own personal attractions to the work of Thomas and guided by his careful reading of it, William V. Davis brings us this excellent collection of essays exploring the distinguished yet controversial poet-priest.
