In this volume, all his published poetry is brought together: "The North Ship", the pamphlet of "XX poems", "The Less Deceived", "The Whitsun Weddings" and his final book, "High Windows". In addition, many poems are published here for the first time. There is a substantial selection of early poems written from his middle teens to 1945, and several previously uncollected poems of his maturity, among them the few he completed and left unpublished after "High Windows". Anthony Thwaite has based the whole edition on the carefully preserved and dated notebooks and typescripts left by Larkin. An appendix lists in the order Larkin assigned to them the contents of each of the books and pamphlets published in his lifetime, together with the order of contents of the collection "In the Grip of Light", which he attempted to publish in 1947. As the editor observes, "taken together, the poems show the growth of a major poet, testing, filtering, rejecting, modulating, achieving"'. (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper). ***A true first printing of the first edition of the first collected edition of Philip Larkin's poems, in nice collectable condition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
