Greyhound station, Los Angeles. Little Mexican girl and her sister. While I sit reading she takes my arm, speaks to me in Spanish I don't understand, I throw my head back laughing, the girl and her sister and her mother all smile. I read aloud to them in English of The Adventures of Karl Marx in the Land of Capital, Volume One. They feed me tortillas and when my bus comes, leave me with hugs.
