Dylan Thomas in the News

Dylan Thomas is widely considered one of the greatest 20th Century poets writing in English. The Welsh poet certainly made a mark in the literary would during his short lifetime (dying at age 39).

This week starts off with news that Actor Neil Morrissey is selling a pub that was a hangout of the late Welsh poet Dylan Thomas in Brown's Hotel in Laugharne, Carmarthenshire. The site is near where Dylan and his wife Caitlin raised their family in a boat house.

And speaking of Caitlin... Actress Lindsay Lohan will play the wife of the Welsh poet in a movie with Keira Knightley. Knightely will play the role of childhood friend Vera Phillips. The two women are sexually attracted to one another.
