Review # 1 was written on 2014-04-27 00:00:00 Roland Ford I first read these stories over thirty years ago, and hadn't clearly remembered any of them, except for Dylan Thomas's marvellous evocation of teenage years, Extraordinary Little Cough. I've walked the length, and back, of Rhosilli beach, so I can appreciate the feat described in the story! Interesting to re-read them, having finally moved to Wales, and I'm looking forward to exploring more Welsh fiction, particularly more by the authors Gwyn Thomas and BL Coombes. Gwyn Thomas's story in this volume, 'The Teacher', is quite beautiful and deeply moving. |
Review # 2 was written on 2020-05-13 00:00:00 Karl Johnson Thought I might have an affinity with this volume considering it's a collection of Welsh tales. Pretty much all of them were of abysmal quality and only giving it a score of two as the final tale redeemed it a little and was slightly more interesting. Always hated short stories, they are a concept that I just can't gel with. I always want more out of what I read so they just don't appeal and sadly this was no exception. |
