All Things Betray Thee
''All Things Betray Thee'', by Gwyn Thomas, is a novel of early industrialism in South Wales. It was first published in 1949, and was republished in 1986, with an introduction by Raymond Williams.〔(Parthian Books: All Things Betray Thee ). Accessed 30 Sept 2014〕
Set in 1835, this work is significantly different from most of Gwyn Thomas's work. It is both a personal story and an account of the origin of the industrialised and mostly English-speaking society of the South Wales Valleys.
==Plot summary==
Set in the new town of Moonlea, a fictionalised version of Merthyr Tydfil, it is told from the viewpoint of a travelling harpist, Alan Hugh Leigh, who is looking for his friend, the singer John Simon Adams. But his friend has become a populist leader among the ironworkers, who are involved in a bitter industrial conflict.
Rachel Trezise describes it as "an emblematic account of the 1831 Merthyr Rising".〔''Planet'', no 206〕
