It is spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black...

Under Milk Wood tells the story of a Welsh village during one spring day. It is populated by some of the best-loved characters in British literature.

Lyrical, funny, moving, it is rooted in place but with a universality that has spoken to generations of readers. A Welsh epic, a work of poetic genius, a modern classic.
