i came down here to buy a foulard.  suddenly i realized that little by little, directly behind me, i was being followed by so many men, and more and more of them kept coming.
but i have always gone around like this, everywhere in the world. nothing like this has ever happened to me before.
nineteen. my name is gloria perkins. i'm married and a writer by profession. i write in a trance, almost always in contact with people who are dead. tolstoi, for example, or shakespeare. but the movies also interest me.
no, why should i be shocked? we're in italy, not finland.
in palermo i was with my husband. now i'm going to capri to write an article for the tourist office.
oh, yes, thank you.
