Brinnin, John Malcolm, — Dylan Thomas in America: an intimate journal.

NY, Viking, (1964). 5th ptg. G PB. The most flamboyant fulfillment since Byron of the public's conception of the wild, amoral, romantic poet. Edge wear,. fading toward spine. Thomas made 4 trips to America where he was lionized and sought after coast to coast but also saw him caught in a mounting frenzy of driking, party going, and emotionally charged relationships. He first came to NYC at the invitation of Brinnin, director of the YM-YWHA Poetry Center and was closest to him during those years.
