Se davvero avete voglia di
sentire questa storia, magari vorrete sapere prima di tutto dove sono nato e
com'è stata la mia infanzia schifa e che cosa facevano i miei genitori
e compagnia bella prima che arrivassi io, e tutte quelle baggianate alla David
Copperfield, ma a me non va proprio di parlarne.
Jerome David Salinger, Il giovane Holden
If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you'll
probably want to know is where I was born, and what my lousy childhood was like,
and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David
Copperfield kind of crap, but I don't feel like going into it, if you want know
the truth.
The Catcher in the Rye
