I have so enjoyed every minute of revisiting my childhood in the 50s and 60s that I invite you to share the fun and laughter with me. I know that my reminiscences will resonate with similar experiences from your childhood and will run sweet tears of joy in your inner eye. Remember when all things were possible? When every daring do - did! When laughter ran you a paper chase, when we had wings on our heels and gasps stirred the webs of mischief as the days spun down to bed. Well, my book will take you where you want to be, as you walk with me where I was and where childhoods ran supreme. Look, laugh, cry, feel and belong. Welcome, I bid you enter ...

Rhodri: A Political Life in Wales and Westminster is the political autobiography of Rhodri Morgan. This posthumously published account of the political life of the father of Welsh devolution is delivered with the fluency and wit that was so characteristic of the man himself. The first First Minister of Wales and Welsh Labour leader revisits the early influences that shaped him politically and which led him to Westminster, and his relationship with the New Labour project and the party establishment’s campaign to prevent him becoming Labour leader in Wales – before ‘the people’s choice’ eventually prevailed. As First Minister of Wales from 2000, he led three terms of Labour Government in Cardiff Bay (with the political, as well as health, challenges of two coalition arrangements), and navigated his own path into clear red water to present a distinct alternative policy agenda to the New Labour Government in London. Written with his typical lack of ostentation, this book allows us to read the final reflections by Rhodri Morgan on political life in Wales, in Westminster and beyond, with unique insight into the first ten years in the history of the National Assembly of Wales.

These poems are a memoir of my days growing up in the village of Pentrechwyth in the Lower Swansea Valley. They capture the emotions of a child in the 50s and 60s, playing in the industrial wasteland amongst the slag tips, amongst the ruins, but also across the green spaces that were reclaiming destitution from the past. Fall into my well of time and drink deep from the emotions of my words, and you will share the emotions and uniqueness of a time and place. Come with me now, take my hand and we'll walk together through my childhood and through the ugly lovely village of Pentrechwyth.

Ranging from the nineteenth-century to the present, this book explores several central aspects of the ways in which the English-language poetry and fiction of Wales has responded to what was, for a crucial period of a century or so, the dominant culture of Wales: the culture of Welsh Nonconformity. In the introduction, the author reflects on why no sustained attempt has hitherto been made to investigate one of the formative cultural influences on modern 'Anglo-Welsh' literature, the Nonconformist inheritance. The importance of addressing this strange and significant cultural deficit is then explained, and a preliminary attempt made to capture something of the spirit of Welsh Nonconformity. The succeeding chapters address and seek to answer such questions as: What exactly did the Welsh chapels believe and do? Why have the English-language writers of Wales, from Caradoc Evans and Dylan Thomas to R.S. Thomas and the authors of today, been so fascinated by them? How accurate are the impressions we've been given of chapel life and chapel people in the English-language poetry and fiction of Wales? The answers offered may alter our views both of the Welsh Nonconformist past and of Welsh writing in English. One of the ideas advanced is that many of Wales' most important writers went to war with the preachers in their texts, and that their work is therefore the site of cultural struggle. Theirs was a war in words waged to determine who would have the last word on modern Welsh experience.
