Byron Rogers

The Man Who Went Into the West

The Life of R.S.Thomas


A biography of the Welsh poet, regarded as one of the greats of the post-war period and whose work is published by Penguin, Orion and Bloodaxe. This is a sometimes surprising portrait, comic and absurd at times, which captures the warmth and humanity of a singular man, and is a strong successor to Rogers' previous acclaimed biography, The Last Englishman: J.L. Carr.
