Philip Larkin is out of touch with the modern world.
You just need to look at the poems he has written - he has very old traditional views, perhaps even naive.
I'm not too fully clued up on him yet, and I am also looking for a website, but as a starting point, yse Mr.Bleaney, Broadcast, Faith Healing, Toads Revisited, Water, Self's The Man - there are loads as Larkin uses his experiences of life to write his poetry.
Hope this helps?
