Today is the centenary of the birth of Philip Larkin, who attended the School from 1930 to 1940. https://t.co/gHFelSbcAD

What is the proper role of a literary executor? Where are the proper boundaries between celebration/prurience, personal privacy/public interest, analysis/exploitation? The Larkin industry picks over the bones of his legacy. https://t.co/7R4sUkrcT5

Thanks to @philipcpullen, here's the link to the video of the lecture given at @bkhskhviii on Saturday after the @PLSoc AGM by @OldCoventrians #PeterHoDavies about the writer's invisible art of revision. A fabulous masterclass in the art of novel writing. https://t.co/opxFobC2tg

A beloved former teacher (who died in 2010) loaned this picture of Philip Larkin to a former pupil several years ago and it found its way back to us this morning with the original negative & an apology. It's always exciting to discover a new piece of Larkinalia @PLS @The_Herbert
