cooperlola Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 [quote user="Dick Smith"]Under Milk Wood[/quote]I thought it was a radio play, Dick, as one pedant (who can't spell) said to another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoddy Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 I just happen to have a copy of a book with the title "Under Milk Wood" on my shelves. It says that it was first published in 1954.Hoddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Smith Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Yes, it was a radio play, later published as a book. It is, in my honed opinion, a pure triumph of the language, with a wit and playfulness rarely seen, a depth of theme and a sophistication of structure which raise it far above a mere radio play. Not just a masterpiece, but a tour de force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassis Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 It was first performed the year before - it is a play.There he goes, beating me to the punch again. Tch!X-MenThere, that's lowered the tone a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
