When John and I hitchhiked to Paris in 1961, we went to a café on the Left Bank, and the waitress was older than us - easy, since John was turning twenty-one and I was nearly twenty. She poured us two glasses of vin ordinaire, and we noticed she had hair under her arms, which was shocking: 'Oh my God, look at that; she's got hair under her arms!' (...)You had to be a real beatnik. It's such a clear memory for me.

Afinal, não há 5 sem 6. (perdi-me nas contas). 😂
Estou a começar a levar estas leituras a sério, Fátima. Ai se chego a "não há 48 sem 49", ou coisa que o valha!Mas vale a pena: pela primeira vez na vida li a palavra cortejar num livro. Isto é adorável. É como ouvir os avós a contar histórias da juventude! :D
