Welsh writers fall into two categories: those who write in Welsh and those who write in English. Is there a more fundamental difference between them? For instance, are Anglo-Welsh writers less conscious of their Welshness than those writing in Welsh? Do they feel as great a sense of responsibility towards Wales? Also, has Anglo-Welsh writing made a special contribution to the general body of English literature?
These are some of the questions discussed in this conversation among a group of Welsh writers.
