To stand beneath Joyce's tower in Sandycove reading "Finnegan's Wake" and pretending that he got it; to sing "Wild Rover" and "Black Velvet Band" in a pub until someone paid him to stop; to make spontaneous conversation with men in tweed jackets till one of them fell off the bar stool. This is Larkin's journey through a homeland that, like millions of others, he'd been denied.
