<p>Yesterday, I dropped into the library and picked up High Windows, Philip Larkin&#x27;s brilliant poetry collection. I became interested in Larkin when I went to university in Hull. He had been the librarian at the university, but died just after I arrived so I never saw him. He was legendarily reclusive, so I probably wouldn&#x27;t have seen him anyway!</p><p>High Windows has one of his most famous poems:</p><p>This Be The Verse</p><p>They fuck you up, your mum and dad. <br> They may not mean to, but they do. <br>They fill you with the faults they had<br> And add some extra, just for you.</p><p>But they were fucked up in their turn<br> By fools in old-style hats and coats, <br>Who half the time were soppy-stern<br> And half at one another’s throats.</p><p>Man hands on misery to man.<br> It deepens like a coastal shelf.<br>Get out as early as you can,<br> And don’t have any kids yourself.</p><p><a href="/tags/books/" rel="tag">#Books</a> <a href="/tags/poetry/" rel="tag">#Poetry</a> <a href="/tags/hull/" rel="tag">#Hull</a> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://fedigroups.social/@bookstodon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstodon</span></a></span></p>

What books do you have multiple copies of? And, why do we do this to ourselves? I have two copies of: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain Small Island by Andrea Levy Thinking Clearly by Jill Leblanc These are due to integration between my partner’s books and my own. The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy No Logo by Naomi Klein Island by Aldous Huxley These are because they are some of my favourite books and, except for No Logo, I have one hardcover and one softcover edition.
