Day twenty-nine of our daily readings from “Dear Los Angeles,” a collection of letters and diary entries from 1542 to 2018, while all of us quarantine in 2020.
Today’s entry from 1950 comes from a love letter written by poet Dylan Thomas to his wife Caitlin. In it he mentions several other notable names, one of which we’ve featured here.
Despite the tone of the letter, their marriage was actually full of drama, alcohol and infidelity.
We love you, Los Angeles!
