Las bodas de Pentecostés es una colección de poemas de Philip Larkin, que retrata vidas periféricas en un sentido geográfico y emocional. Los poemas exploran la soledad de los suburbios, los hábitos de consumo de la clase trabajadora, la vejez, el fracaso de los matrimonios y la presencia de la muerte, todo ello con una mezcla de ternura e ironía.

Philip Arthur Larkin was an English poet, novelist, and librarian. His first book of poetry, The North Ship, was published in 1945, followed by two novels, Jill (1946) and A Girl in Winter (1947). He came to prominence in 1955 with the publication of his second collection of poems, The Less Deceived, followed by The Whitsun Weddings (1964) and High Windows (1974). He contributed to The Daily Telegraph as its jazz critic from 1961 to 1971, with his articles gathered in All What Jazz: A Record Diary 1961–71 (1985), and edited The Oxford Book of Twentieth Century English Verse (1973). His many honours include the Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry. He was offered, but declined, the position of Poet Laureate in 1984, following the death of Sir John Betjeman.
