Alena’s Reviews > Giovanni’s Room > Status Update

I might ask to be forgiven - if I could name and face my crime, if there were anything or anybody anywhere with the power to forgive.

With this fearful intimation there opened in me a hatred for Giovanni which was as powerful as my love and was nourished by the same roots.

Perhaps he is a fool and a coward but almost everybody is one or the other and most people are both.
