In the words of Philip Larkin, he "offers us something we cannot find in any other writer - a gaiety, a sense of the ridiculous, and affection for human beings and how and where they live, a vivid and vivacious portrait of mid-twentieth-century English social life". ***Since it was first published in 1958, "Collected Poems" has been re-issued several times to include "High and Low" (1960) and "A Nip in the Air" (1974), bringing together previously uncollected poems, and has sold more than two million copies. The present edition first appeared in 2006, marking the centenary of Betjeman's birth, and includes his verse autobiography "Summoned by Bells", and a new introduction by Andrew Motion."
