AFTERNOONS by Philip Larkin

This poem explores Larkin’s perspective on married women, starting with a late autumn afternoon scene in a recreation ground. Young mothers watch their children play, leading Larkin to conclude that early marriage and motherhood result in a loss of identity and unfulfilled potential. The poem contrasts the monotonous daily routines of wives with the absent husbands engaged in skilled work.
