Description: | Select Guide Rating Philip Larkin (1922-1985) remains England's best-loved poet - a writer matchlessly capable of evoking his native land and of touching all readers from the most sophisticated intellectual to the proverbial common reader. Philip Larkin (1922-1985) remains England''s best-loved poet - a writer matchlessly capable of evoking his native land and of touching all readers from the most sophisticated intellectual to the proverbial common reader. The late John Betjeman observed that ''this tenderly observant poet writes clearly, rhythmically, and thoughtfully about what all of us can understand''. Behind this modest description lies a poet who made greatness look, in Milton''s prescription, ''simple, sensuous and passionate''. |
