15th October 2013: Dandelion by Patrick Jones
‘Patrick Jones is a serious writer of ambitious themes. His work does not bear such themes lightly. I tweeted about his play, Dandelion, performed at Galeri Caernarfon on Tuesday 24th, and unluckily for both of us he noticed. He didn’t like my wry comment, and became abusive.’
My review of Dandelion by Patrick Jones, and my account of a Twitter spat, published in New Welsh Review 101 (Autumn 2013) online, and available to read below.
