Dylan Thomas Walking Tour of Greenwich Village, New York

Written by Peter Thabit Jones and Aeronwy Thomas, daughter of Dylan Thomas

“At poor peace I sing
To you, strangers”
from Prologue

This is a self-guided walking tour of ten places in Greenwich Village that are connected with the Welsh poet Dylan Thomas, who visited and stayed in New York City while on four reading tours of North America between 1950 and 1953. The tour is designed to provide you with a strong sense of the real man behind the “brassy orator” with “the lovely gift of the gab,” as well as giving you a feel for Greenwich Village of the 1950s. We hope that you will find the walk both pleasurable and informative. Please follow the directions on this map. The tour will take around 1 hour and 30 minutes to 2 hours.
