D.M. Thomas, one of Cornwall's greatest poets and novelists, died yesterday, peacefully, and surrounded by loved ones. I am fortunate to have published four of his last books: 𝘏𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘯𝘰𝘸, 𝘊𝘰𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘢 𝘔𝘢𝘯, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘓𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘞𝘢𝘭𝘵𝘻 and, his last, 𝘈 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘓𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘞𝘢𝘳. This last is a memoir, very artfully written in verse, covering a large swathe of his life from his childhood up until the death of his second wife in 1998. It is extraordinarily revealing and brutally honest. #DMThomas 1/3
