    1. IRIS GOWER R.I.P.
      .
      A word or two in recognition of Iris Gower, I have never read any of her books but am more than aware of her prodigious out put of novels set in and around her home town of Swansea. Not least one could not fail to notice the number of her books on sale and I am sure her popularity went beyond the borders of Wales. Iris Gower wrote a great many novels whilst bringing up four children and she did her writting with our grants, please note all you 'Usual Suspect' year after year 'Grant Grabbers'. I would hope that her home town of Swansea, not least Mumbles where Iris was born now sets their mind to organise an annual Gwyl Iris Gower that would celebrate her life whilst commemorate in a popular fashion reflect the themes within her books. I am sure that Wales and World wide Iris Gower is read as much as Dylan Thomas, so why not remember Iris Gower as much?
