Does Love Survive Loss?

Larkin and Auden are perhaps the two pre-eminent English-language poets of the past century, successors to Eliot and Yeats. For Americans less familiar with Larkin, I?m not going to get into an argument here over the poets? pre-eminence. Yes, there are American contenders, Lowell, Bishop, Hart Crane. Even Nabokov on the strength of ?Pale Fire? alone. But Larkin and Auden are frequently paired as poets without peers. (I know it?s unseemly to talk in these horse-racy terms, but have you noticed the way Larkin appears to have overtaken Auden?and virtually all other moderns?in critical estimation of late?)
