The Proust Quiz at OPEN BOOK TORONTO!


The most fun interview I've done in a while -

The Proust Quiz
at
Open Book Toronto!


*
As explained at the Open Book Toronto website,
"The Proust Questionnaire was not invented by Marcel Proust,
but it was a much loved game by the French author and many of his contemporaries.
The idea behind the questionnaire is that the answers are supposed to reveal
the respondent's 'true' nature."
Hemingway! Italian sports cars!
Miss America! Shamrock Shakes!

And here, as mentioned at the beginning of the feature,
