Mogg Williams Selected Works
Edited by John Evans
"Mogg Williams of Ogmore Vale, poet and disabled miner, in Look
Stranger conveyed exactly in a later time and context the dignified
loneliness and pain of the vanished Huw Menai...It is sad that
so much South Welsh talent should have had to grow from such a
pungent compost of early mutilations." - Gwyn Thomas, Writer and Broadcaster.
"The media and newspapers could learn a great deal from the poetry
of Mogg Williams. His words communicate an understanding of the
miners experiences that so-called objective reporting very rarely
achieves. His poem The Nameless Ones about the unemployed, should
be read by every MP in the House of Commons." - Dennis Skinner, Member of Parliament.
"Of all my Welsh contemporaries, Mogg Williams has inspired me
the most." - Karl Francis, Film Director & Writer.
"His writings touch a deep chord in me and enhances my commitment
to socialism." - Jack Jones, Former Secretary T.G.W.U.
