New Quay (III)

All County Ceredigion, Mid Wales coastal area dotted with fishing villages, was a source of inspiration for Thomas, who lived here in the '40s, particularly New Quay . This town seems to have modeled the fictional Llareggub , where you set the radio play "Under Milk Wood", and its inhabitants think they can recognize many of the curious characters who populate it. (nb the name of the village is to be read in reverse: "bugger all", insignificant detail that reveals once again the strong taste of Thomas for language games, the sound quality of words, basically, it was poetry.)

On the official website of the area of \u200b\u200bCeredigion is even a detailed route, the " Dylan Thomas Trail," which allows you to explore New Quay and the surrounding areas in the footsteps of the author, fun to look among the places and faces of the characteristic local people, the suggestions that allowed Thomas to compose one of his masterpieces.
seem so to cross a fabulous place, out of time, where the pubs, the barber, the postman, the candy store, bring us back to elements of its "Under Milk Wood", or that other fresco of provincial life which is the collection " Winesburg, Ohio " by Sherwood Anderson , a microcosm of the seemingly insignificant ( Llareggub, in fact) but really scored in aspects of private passions and obsessions confessed.

A New Quay is still Black Lion, the pub favorite Dylan (to his wife Caitlin think it was instead the Dolau), where there is a collection of photos and memorabilia related to the poet. Across the street, in Gomer House, Polly lived Captain Tom, the real Captain Cat In
but became increasingly visible part Majoda , the house where Dylan and Caitlin lived from 1944 to '45, and shortly afterwards the home of friends and William Killick Vera Phillips, the singer who was the poet's lover before getting married and where Dylan and Caitlin had lived in Talsarn in 1941.
E 'own New Quay in fact one of the main places where it was filmed on the life of Thomas, "The Edge of Love " (2008).

During his stay in New Quay Dylan Thomas also wrote dramas "Quite Early One Morning" and "Memories of Christmas" and the poems "Vision and Prayer," "Holy Spring", "Poem in October", "Fern Hill" and "A Refusal to Mourn the Death by Fire of a Child in London".
