Status Updates From Howtown (Henry Rios Mystery...

“What are you talking about?”
“My mother,” he whispered. “My mother.”
WTF? 😳🤢

“Josh. Yeah. He’s my partner.”
“Why did he say that thing about me joining you guys?”
I studied his expression. He seemed neither particularly upset nor even especially embarrassed.
“He was joking, Ben.”
He considered this for a moment and in a low voice asked, “What if I had said yes?”
“Are you trying to tell me something?”
👀 Oh, apparently my guess was right. 😊

Sempre più torbida questa faccenda.
PS Elena mi sta abbondantemente sui cabasisi.

Bello complicato anche questo volume.
Peccato che questa volta la traduzione sia alquanto approssimativa.

E questa volta si parla di pedofilia, giusto per continuare con argomenti difficili.
E mi ha piacevolmente sorpreso trovare un riferimento a Primo Levi e ai suoi romanzi sui sopravvissuti ai lager.
