~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thomas, the expatriate Welshman, gives his views: . . . a piece, a play, an impression for
voices, an entertainment out of the darkness, of the town I live in,
(written) simply and warmly and comically with lots of movement and varieties
of moods, so that, at many levels, through sight and speech, description and
dialogue, evocation and parody, you come to know the town as an inhabitant of
it. If
only for one moment the Western world could drop the veils that, ever since
the Reformation, have clung around it like the films of a disease, and look,
with lightened eyes, upon the cess it has created,
on the greatness it has split and strangled, on the starvation it has
fostered, on the perversions and ignorances it has
taught, then it would die for shame.
And we, who have not been long enough alive to be corrupted utterly,
could build out of its manuring bones the base of
an equal and sensible civilization. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
