I just got home. I weigh 124 lbs. but I suspect my scale lies a bit. I find this book to be charming.

My father, finished the day shift, arrived exactly at 6:30. He entered the house and did not go immediately in the dining room to say hello to the family, but changed his pants in the lumber room: he took these off to be washed and he put on house socks of grey wool. After the moment in which he put on the first sock and the moment in which he put on the second one, a few mi ... nutes went by, in which he went from the lumber room to the bathroom and vice versa. It was in those moments, in which he went around without pants, seeing him walking by in underwear, that I was embarrassed about him. I was so embarrassed that I wished I could sink into the floor. He wore underpants of fine white popeline, wide and long almost to his knees and I found him to be very brutish in those underpants.
To tell the truth, I always found him to be brutish, my father, even when he was not in underwear.
My father called her neither tota nor great. He called her Signorina (Miss). Secondly I had true admiration for him, maybe because he thought it was wonderful that an employee of Social Security should pay a visit to a worker at Fiat, which gave him pride. Who knows. Whatever the case was, he greeted her with a kind of curtsy and he never failed to give her some compliment, especially about her yellow hair in long tresses (the woman is 70 years old), that she seemed like a sun shining in his dining room, and so on. My mother watch him in silence and did not have any wine, she let him drink it all him with la tota Nita. Ucenter Dress diamond wedding collections with beading
