  People are compelled to keep diaries for a many different reasons. Although they are the most private form of writing, there have been few diarists who have not in their heart of hearts hoped that their daily confidences would be read by other eyes and Philip Larkin's order to burn his diary after his death was a most unusual one. Ronald Blythe wrote Akenfield , A Treasonable Growth , The View in Winter and Writing in War .
