Awesome picture. I've been thinking a lot lately about writers who try to carefully, effortfully work at building their own legacies/legends while alive (Nabokov, Joyce, Vollmann is a contemporary who does it) and those who just seem to stumble into these magnificent photo ops - Borges, maybe b/c he couldn't see shit and had to just accept it. I like to think of him that way anyhow.
