Afternoons

• “In the hollows of afternoons”
• ”and the albums, lettered our wedding lying near the television“
• “Before them, the wind is ruining their courting-places “
• “So intent on finding more unripe acorns, expect to be taken home”
• written by phillip Larkin
• Is quite patronising and mocking in parts of the poem
• Overall is about the monotonous and restricted way of life these young women in the poem live
• Presents the themes of: change, passage of time.
