A powerful alternative history of 20th-century South Wales, this book from a highly respected cultural historian enters new territory. Bypassing the linear model of history, it mixes events randomly--like mosaic pieces--and invites the mind to wander. As a result, the book becomes many things: an autobiography, a collective biography, an opportunity for conjecture, and a fond salute to many Welsh writers and painters, boxers and historians, friends and relatives, critics and correspondents, rioters and photographers.
