Larkinland

Description

Camwch i fyd Larkinland, sef Hull yn y 1950au. Dyma’r tirwedd cynaliadwy a grëwyd gan Jonathan Tulloch o gerddi Larkin, â’i boblogi â’i gymeriadau ei hun, ynghyd â fersiwn o Larkin ei hun, sef y prif gymeriad Arthur Merryweather, llyfrgellydd, bardd a rhamantydd o fri.
Step into Larkinland. Home of bicycle clips, trains, trolley buses, despair in rented rooms, and of course, the ‘almost love affair’. Jonathan Tulloch deftly builds Philip Larkin’s poems into a sustained landscape, fills it with his characters and for good measure adds a version of Larkin himself, main character Arthur Merryweather, librarian, poet and would-be great romantic.
