Anonymous asked : Do you have anyone reading "Their Lonely Betters" by W.H. Auden?
— I have a trntbl now. Trntbls are cool.
To the anon who wanted to stream the poetry clips (and for anyone else who’s interested), you can listen to all the poems at my trntbl playlist, which can be found here.
Anonymous asked : Is there any way I can continuously stream the poetry?

For the first poem, the only celebrity who has read it (besides the author himself) is Aiden Gillen. A clip of that can be found here. As for When I Am Dead, the only celebrity clip I’ve heard is that of Dame Peggy Ashcroft’s, which you can listen to here. I don’t know if those names were exactly what you’re looking for, but hopefully that helps!

“Do not go gentle into that good night” by Dylan Thomas Read by Anthony Hopkins |
Google and YouTube tell me that no one has done a reading of it, which is a shame, because it’s a gorgeous poem. If anyone wants to read it for themselves, you can find the poem here.
