In this centenary year, the Larkin Society brings together its President, Rosie Millard, and one of its Vice-Presidents, Alan Johnson, for a conversation about the great poet and more.
Both fans of Hull and Larkin, both writers, both commentators on the cultural and political world, they will be providing a knowledgeable and personal look at Larkin the writer, Larkin the man and the controversy that sometimes surrounds him.
But their exchange will inevitably touch on the role that Hull played in all their lives. What is it about this city with its ‘different resonance’ that inspires great poetry?
