«Con distinta piel» is the novel by Dylan Thomas published by Bruguera in paperback (151 pages, in Spanish).
Samuel Bennet is not looking for excitement, but adventures find him in the London of his twenties. After each experience he feels he becomes someone else, as if shedding his skin. The character reflects the young Dylan Thomas, and the novel brings to prose the verbal play, vivacity and subconscious elements of his poetry, with sharp humor.
Translation by Juan Angel Cotta. The original, 'Adventures in the Skin Trade', was published in 1955. This edition belongs to the Libro Amigo collection from Bruguera.
For readers of twentieth-century British fiction and admirers of Dylan Thomas who want to discover his prose side, with surreal humor.
Dylan Marlais Thomas was a Welsh poet and writer, whose works include the poems "Do not go gentle into that good night" and "And death shall have no dominion", as well as the "play for voices" Under Milk Wood. He also wrote stories and radio broadcasts such as A Child's Christmas in Wales and Portrait of the Artist as a Young Dog. He became widely popular in his lifetime, and remained so after his death at the age of 39 in New York City. By then, he had acquired a reputation, which he had encouraged, as a "roistering, drunken and doomed poet".
