Journal Title: European Online Journal of Natural and Social Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
Philip Larkin (1922-1985) is regarded as a British national cultural icon. Larkin creates many volumes of poems. Most of the poems of these volumes are based on the gloomy atmosphere which is related to death. He is a pessimistic poet. In most of his poems, he talks about the hopelessness of life. The gloomy atmosphere of his poems reminds us of sickness, helplessness, and uncertainty of life. His death related poems are very heart-rending and certainly forces us to think about the negative aspects of life. The death of his father moves him a lot and most of his poems are full of the shadow of death. These poems are based on reality and his way of expression such as in The Ambulances, The Building is very shocking but outstanding. The major publications of Larkin are the North-Ship, The Less Deceived, The Whitsun Weddings and High Windows.
