“E così a 5 anni avevo già il mio

corredo pronto: due mobili pieni in

attesa del mio matrimonio.

Dopo 30 anni, ho sposato un inglese

che odiava dormire sui ricami. Diceva

che non sopportava svegliarsi con

tatuaggi di fiori sul viso.

Come biasimarlo?”

“So when I was 5 years old, my

trousseau was already prepared: two

full wardrobes just waiting for my

wedding.

After 30 years, I married an Englishman

who hated sleeping on embroidery. He

used to say he hated waking up with

flower tattoos on his face.

And who could blame him?”
