Llun clawr In The Green Tree gan Alun Lewis

Crynodeb:
Drwy ei lythyrau adref a chwe stori fer, mae Alun Lewis yn paentio darlun bywiog o fywyd yn yr India fel milwr Prydeinig yn ystod yr Ail Ryfel Byd. Mae In The Green Tree yn agos atoch, fywiog, sylwgar ac yn llawn emosiwn o hyd, ac yn enghraifft lenyddol brin o brofiad un Cymro o’r ymerodraeth a rhyfel.

Nodiadau bywgraffyddol:
Alun Lewis (1915-1944) oedd un o’r genhedlaeth gyntaf o awduron a aned yn nwy ddegawd gyntaf yr ugeinfed ganrif a gyfrannodd yn helaeth at lenyddiaeth Cymru drwy gyfrwng y Saesneg.

Ymddangosodd ei gyfrol gyntaf Raiders’ Dawn and Other Poems, yn gynharach y flwyddyn honno ac fe’i dilynwyd gan The Last Inspection [and other stories] ym 1943. Paratowyd ail gyfrol o gerddi yn India ac ymddangosodd wedi ei farwolaeth ym 1945 fel Ha! Ha! Among the Trumpets.

Rhagflas byr

November, 1942

I’ve got a little while before I plunge into a sweating hold to see that a piano accordion sing-song is in progress, and then up to the wireless cabin for ‘On Board Tonight’. I’m in my hot little cabin and I thought I’d be alone but in come Tudor and another batman called D.O. Evans who is known everywhere as Bugger All Evans! They pretend they’ve got work to do in our cabin but really it’s simply to have somewhere less unbearably sweltering than the crowded hold in which they are forced to exist – what places they are!
