In 1962, Robert Allen Zimmerman, one of the greatest songwriters of all time, changed his name to Dylan....Bob Dylan.

In homage to a great poet, who drank himself into a coma in 1953.

The Beatles incorporated the same poet's image into the cover design of their groundbreaking hit 8th album, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band...

And we all watched Interstellar.
If you hadn't, watch it...

The poet was Dylan Thomas, of course.

And the masterpiece work of this Welsh poet is undoubtedly Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night...an ode to the tenacity of the human spirit.

The poem does not actually have a title, but is known by its refrain...
.

Dylan Thomas once described himself as a “roistering, drunken and doomed poet”...

Written in 1947, it is widely believed that this great poem was written for his dying father.

However, David Thomas only died in 1953...
