Daily Dose
From If On a Winter's Night a Traveler, by Italo Calvino, translated by William Weaver
AT THESE MOMENTS
"At these moments he reveals a less reserved character than appears at first sight; indeed, he tends to warm to his subject and become verbose, especially in disapproving of the majority's way of acting and thinking, he is a man who tends to be dissatisfied."
From Leaning from the Steep Slope
