“Who were these trouble-makers being kept under the uncertain rein of a few puzzled policemen? The papers this morning describe them as Byronic integralists and fanatical Mitteleuropeans, all demonstrating with loudspeakers, banners, leaflets, and even bonfires, against the exclusion of their favourite works from the convention. «COMPLETE DON JUAN!» the banners read; «HOW DOES THE MAN WITHOUT QUALITIES END?»; «FINISH AMERIKA!» There was no violence, although a group of Kafkian extremists did try -without success- to break into the U&O via a service door.”
