David Kennedy can't make much sense of Harrison's handling of the RP/
'nonstandard' accent problem.This may have something to do with your being
twenty years younger than Harrison, David. More important, in the poems the
issue is imposition, not surprise. The fact you've no trouble understanding
and valuing varieties of accent is to your credit but proves sod all about
things in general. By all means dream of a classless society, but don't
start pretending we've got one on the quiet.
