A Brush With Magic

Played the recording I've got on CD of the original radio broadcast of Under Milk Wood last night. It's the first time I've listened to it in years, though funnily enough I've played the other goodies in the collection (4 CDs worth) fairly regularly. For some reason I thought I was so familiar with the play that I wouldn't get too much out of listening again.

I was wrong, and deeply so. I was as enchanted by it this time round as I was when Jack Connelly played it for his English class when I was seventeen.
