LARKIN PHILIP

ΟΣΟ ΥΠΑΡΧΕΙ ΑΚΟΜΗ ΚΑΙΡΟΣ, 50 ΠΟΙΗΜΑΤΑ
Ο Φίλιπ Λάρκιν (1922-1985) είναι χωρίς αμφιβολία ένας από τους κορυφαίους Άγγλους ποιητές της μεταπολεμικής περιόδου, και σίγουρα ο πιο δημοφιλής. Αν και ολιγογράφος, κατάφερε να καθιερωθεί ως η πιο αυθεντική και στιβαρή φωνή της γενιάς του. Ο ανά χείρας τόμος περιέχει πενήντα ποιήματα, μια εκτενή επιλογή όχι μόνο από τις τέσσερις συλλογές που δημοσίευσε ο Λάρκιν στη διάρκεια της ζωής του, αλλά και από τα αθησαύριστά του. Ανάμεσα στα ποιήματα αυτά συγκαταλέγονται μερικά από τα πιο γνωστά και αξιομνημόνευτα, όπως το "Ένας τάφος των Άραντελ"...

(P/B) THE WHITSUN WEDDINGS
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'. (From the publisher)...

(P/B) EARLY POEMS AND JUVENILIA
Philip Larkin was one of the most admired and loved English poets of the twentieth century. His Collected Poems has become essential reading on any bookshelf, covering his four published volumes and late work.
