This book examines Larkin's evocation of place and space and the opportunities for self-discovery engendered by the act, and thought, or travel. From his canonical verse, to his lesser-known juvenilia, prose and dream diaries, this title unveils a new Larkin: a man whose religious, political and ontological beliefs are often as experimental as the very breadth of style, form and influential debt used to express them. Whether exploring Larkin's fondness for deictics ('pointing' words, like here/there), his fascination with death, or his latent interest in the sexual opportunities of an itinerant lifestyle, this title offers fresh critical approaches bound to appeal to established Larkin scholars and newcomers alike.
