看着意大利人吃饭{尤其是男人，我不得不说}是书没有告诉你的一种旅游形式。他们闭上眼睛，将眉毛抬高到口音痕迹，并表现出敏锐的欣赏声。这很性感。当然，我不知道这些人在家里的行为，如果他们有助于做饭，或者徒劳，卑鄙和虐待他们的妻子。我意识到地中海文化有问题。很好，不要破坏我的泡沫。我不想嫁给这些家伙，我只是想看。 {p。 247}
(Watching Italians eat {especially men, I have to say} is a form of tourism the books don't tell you about. They close their eyes, raise their eyebrows into accent marks, and make sounds of acute appreciation. It's fairly sexy. Of course I don't know how these men behave at home, if they help with the cooking or are vain and boorish and mistreat their wives. I realized Mediterranean cultures have their issues. Fine, don't burst my bubble. I didn't want to marry these guys, I just wanted to watch. {p. 247})
