A Girl in Winter
1947 novel by Philip Larkin / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Girl in Winter is a novel by Philip Larkin, first published in 1947 by Faber and Faber.[1] It was published in the USA in 1962 by St Martin's Press.[2]
Larkin stated that he had originally intended to write further novels, but he published no more fiction after A Girl in Winter, possibly because of a shortage of material on which to draw for inspiration.[3] John Osborne called it "the most underestimated work in the Larkin canon" and "a harbinger of greatness".[4]
