Product Description
Thomas is accepted, along with Ted Hughes, Philip Larkin and Seamus Heaney, as one of the great post-war British poets. He had a reputation for being an austere, unforgiving, taciturn, wintry man. This work unearths the story of this man's life, and that of his household - one both comic, absurd and touching.

Editorial Reviews
The Guardian
'This is biography that salutes it's subject's art; and is itself
art'
Sunday Times Culture 5th August
`Rogers creates a brilliantly original and often surprisingly funny work'
Craig Brown, Mail on Sunday
One of the most brilliant biographies I have ever read, written with a magical combination of sympathy and horror
