Dream of autonomy
Marcovaldo learned to pile the snow into a compact little wall. If he went on making little walls like that, he could build some streets for himself alone; only he would know where those streets led, and everybody else would be lost there. He could remake the city, pile up mountains high as houses, which no one would be able to tell from real houses.

"To Marcovaldo's eyes, blinded and dazed, the every day city had resumed the place of that other city, glimpsed for a moment, or perhaps only dreamed."

Very funny first story!

Just a bunch of silly short stories

Invierno - Setas en la Ciudad: Marcovaldo ve setas cerca de su trabajo y se ilusiona con llevarlas a casa. Estaba esperando una lluvia para hacerlo. Sin embargo, a la primera lluvia, ve que el barrendero de su laburo se lleva un poco. Él se enoja, pero luego, generosamente, le avisa a toda la gente de la parada de colectivo que habían setas. Luego, todos se vieron en el hospital porque las setas eran tóxicas.
