The poem Mr Bleaney can be interpreted into different views according to the reader. Larkin could have attempted to portray him to be trival and only living through the motions however‚ he could have also portrayed him to be trying to escape his empty environment in search of something better.

a time of change. Financially‚ politically and environmentally‚ nothing is guaranteed. At such times‚ we must question the meaning of life and our place in this world. What will be our legacy? What‚ in the words of Philip Larkin‚ ’will survive of us’? In the poems on our course‚ Larkin explores the nature of change and the transience of life.
