For the first time, Faber publish a selection from the poetry of Philip Larkin. Drawing on Larkin`s four collections and on his uncollected poems, it is chosen by Martin Amis. `Many poets make us smile; how many poets make us laugh - or, in that curious phrase, `laugh out loud` (as if there`s another way of doing it)? Who else uses an essentially conversational idiom to achieve such a variety of emotional effects? Who else takes us, and takes us so often, from sunlit levity to mellifluous gloom? Larkin, often, is more than memorable: he is instantly unforgettable` - Martin Amis.
