English poet Tom Raworth has created an amusing collage of Proust surrounded by contemporary writers of different nationalities.
The caption for the collage reads,"Spotting Ezra Pound hanging about near Oscar Wilde's old house, the Crowley family head for Vita Sackville-West's garden party to celebrate Marianne Moore's graduation. 'Let's hope,' says Al, 'That Marcel will strangle that Sartre brat.' 'Perhaps that Dillinger boy will shoot him,' his wife replies. Meanwhile old mister Kropotkin from next door peers through the hedge."
