Mother's Tongue
Not Mother Tongue
What does the Welsh language mean to the writers in Wales who write in English? Why are so many of the younger ones learning Welsh? And yet, however fluent they become, is it impossible for them to write creatively in Welsh?
Wyn Thomas puts these points to some young poets, and discusses them with poet R. S. Thomas and novelist Emyr Humphreys.
