Beer fat, whiskey fat, in flaccid flesh at his waist, a secret fat, for Zwilich was a lean, lanky, still-young-looking man, five feet ten inches, one hundred seventy pounds, given to small gestures of vanity—smoothing the bristly hairs of his beard, running his fingers through his brushlike hair, checking to see if—yes? was it evident?—the deep bruised indentations beneath his eyes suggested insomniac nights, or late-drinking nights, restlessly surfing TV. The first mouthful of gummy pizza cheese, greasy Italian sausage, and scorched but doughy bread would repel him, and his thirst wasn't for syrupy-sweet Coke.

El primer bocado de queso gomoso, salchicha grasienta italiana y la masa chamuscada pero viscosa de la pizza le produciría repulsión, y su sed no era de Coca-Cola dulce como jarabe.
