Summary
Under Milk Wood shows a day in the life of a small seaside town called Llareggub.
We meet the inhabitants while still asleep, having wild dreams.
We follow them as they wake up and go about their business: in the school yard, on a boat bobbing on the bay, in a field full of nannygoats.
And, as dusk and darkness fall at the end of the day, we say 'Goodnight', tucking them back into bed, to sleep once more.
Adapted by Cerys Matthews this is Under Milk Wood as a perfect bedtime story for children, introducing Dylan Thomas' characters and unforgettable dialogue to the next generation.

Short but beautiful
I could listen to this narrator all day. Such a beautiful accent, bringing all the various characters to life. Great as a bedtime story, for adults as well as children!

Absolutely magical
Cerys’ reading of her “reimagining” of Dylan Thomas’ Under Milk Wood is absolutely wonderful.
The voices of the characters are brilliantly and humorously done, and it is a joy to hear Cerys’ story telling and singing along as she goes.
Perfect for adults and children alike.
I have bought several copies of the book with it’s fantastic illustrations as presents too.

Abridged Vanity project?
To be clear - I adore Cerys’ work generally, and love her voice.
That said, this lends nothing new or particularly insightful to the superb Under Milk Wood, which has been done more thoroughly and more theatrically before.
This reading is a small pleasant diversion at best, and an insult to the original book at worst.
I’ve been generous giving 3 stars to the Story.
This version has been reduced so greatly that a work deserving 5 stars has been sadly diminished. A great shame.
