"A Child's Christmas in Wales" by Dylan Thomas performed by James Navé

James Navé here. I’ve performed A Child's Christmas in Wales every Christmas since 1991, from snowy street corners to quiet gatherings in homes and libraries, at the American Church in Paris, and even in a damp, cozy community center in Roundstone, Ireland. This isn't just a reading; it's a journey. A Child's Christmas in Wales holds a special kind of magic—the nostalgic recollections of a Christmas past, where young boys lie in wait with snowballs, old uncles nap by the fire, and the streets echo with laughter. The piece pulls us into a simpler time, filling our minds with scenes of wonder, mischief, and deep, childlike joy. Let's step together into a world where Christmas means snowy Welsh hills, fireside laughter, and lingering stories. A Child’s Christmas in Wales is my gift to you this holiday season. Take a few moments to listen and enjoy.
