- "Annie tells me that Thomas wrote hundreds of poems in this house, with his greatest output coming between ages 16 and 20. He worked in the morning and drank late, Annie says. Unfortunately, Thomas couldn’t hold his alcohol — perhaps because he was a diabetic, as it’s now believed — so he became a “performing monkey,” she says."
