In the dramatic works Astrakhan (Winter), the fourth world and Manifest Destiny, Dic Edwards creates narratives from a troubled imagination which confront our comfortable, often complacent domesticity with a torn world whose conflicts we do much to fuel - from the fragile post -Soviet Russian Republics of the Caucasus, to Colombia, to the 'War on Terror' - before returning in the poems to that landscape of the metaphysic he shares with the great Thomas poets, Dylan and R S: Wales.
Dic Edwards was born in Cardiff. He studied at St David’s College, Lampeter, University of Wales, Cardiff and University of Wales, Aberystwyth. He has written over 20 plays, including 'Lola Brecht', 'Utah Blue ', 'The Juniper Tree ', 'Beggars New Clothes ', 'Regan', 'The Fourth World', 'Antigone Now', 'The Free Wheelers', 'Vertigo', 'Kid', 'David', 'The Man Who Gave His Foot For Love', 'The Shakespeare Factory', 'Moon River/The Deal ' and 'Over Milk Wood' which have been performed throughout the British Isles. He teaches creative writing at Aberystwyth.
