WHAT HAPPENS ON BEAUTIFUL DAYS
Italy
1944-1945
Yesterday was a bad day and it rained so there wasn’t even an alarm. Today the sun barely shines and although it’s just one o’clock there have already been three alarms. I cannot understand how I’m supposed to live this way. I want to go out, first it rains so I can’t, then the alarms ring, so I can’t once again. But what should I do all day? Sister Irma takes care about this by assigning us a bunch of homework and lessons. It’s true that even doing homework is a way to pass time, but in what way!
