Landscapes
It's not far from
our friend's house to the border, even if it means you have
to cross almost the whole country to get there. Another
friend of ours lives just across the border and is waiting
for us.
We take a train.
All passengers are tidy and very quiet. I try to write
something, but I can't: I'm very tired. I sleep... I dream.
I see houses with red brick walls and large windows. Behind
one of them there's a beautiful woman with long hair,
completely naked. Her hands are on the window but she
doesn't seem to want anyone's attention. The train stops. I
wake.
I ask Valeria to
translate the loudspeaker's message from the French: someone
has committed suicide on the railway track. We must wait. We
arrive in the late evening. Our friend Matteo is at the
station. We hug and then he asks " how
was the trip?"
