Sinopsis

This book examines LarkinâÇÖs evocation of place and space, along with theáopportunities for self-discovery offered by the act and thought of travel. From hisácanonical verse to his lesser-known juvenilia and dream diaries, this title unveilsáa new Larkin, a man whose religious, political and ontological affiliations areáoften as wide-ranging and experimental as the very form and symbolic licenceáused to express them. Whether exploring LarkinâÇÖs fondness for deictics (âÇÖpointingâÇÖáwords, like here/there), his fascination with death, or his interest in the sexualáopportunities of an itinerant lifestyle, this monograph provides fresh criticaláapproaches bound to appeal to established Larkin scholars and newcomers alike.
