News at Eleven: While he [George Szirtes] knows the reified,

talismanic England of "Sid James, Diana Dors/Brylcreem and Phyllosan" better than most of the natives, he also knows how little it might take to undo it, because he has inhabited an equivalent everyday world elsewhere, for example in the residential courtyards of Budapest, in which potted plants and bicycles are found within hailing distance of murder, as in "The Courtyards" (1986): "There's always someone to consider, one/you have not thought of, one who lies alone,/or hangs, debagged, in one more public square."
