cultural peoples
Bei solchem Wetter schmerzten ihre Gelenke besonders: der Rücken, die Hände … Und wer weiß, dachte Irina, während im Radio wieder einmal von der aserbaidschanischen Region Berg-Karabach die Rede war, wo Armenier (die Irina, und zwar nicht nur wegen ihres vorzüglichen Kognaks, für ein großes Kulturvolk hielt) heute Nacht zwanzig Zivilisten umgebracht hatten, wer weiß, dachte sie, was sie sich noch für Schäden zugezogen hatte: die Holzschutzmittel, die sie eingeatmet hatte. Der Kamilit-Staub, von dem es auf einmal hieß, dass er krebserregend sei … und alles vergeblich.
It was in weather like this that her joints were always most painful: her back, her hands ... And who knew, thought Irina, as the talking heads on the radio went on again about the mountainous Karabakh region of Azerbaijan, where the Armenians (whom Irina regarded as a great cultural people, not only because of their excellent cognac) had killed twenty civilians last night, who knew what other damage she had suffered: think of the timber preservative she had breathed in. The dust from insulation, they said these days, was carcinogenic ... and it had all been for nothing.
