| Abstract | ||
| Larkin points out that the modernist writers seemed "to be producing a new kind of bad poetry". Larkin repeatedly stresses the need to establish a closer relationship between the poet and his readers. He firmly believes that poetry should aim at pleasing rather than mystifying, it should give pleasure to both the poet who writes it and those who read it instead of its turning into a complex form explained by the poet himself to university students. | ||
