De todos modos, vivir en el séptimo piso de una casa de apartamentos sin elevadores tenía algo que nos aislaba de la ciudad y como en los demás pisos no había más que oficinas, a partir de las siete de la tarde el edificio era nuestro, como para compensar la estrechez de una sala de estar integrada con cocina —estufa, refrigerador, despensa—, separada sólo por el alto estrado que nos servía de mesa, integrada a su vez por dos altos taburetes parecidos a los potros donde eran colocados, para escarnio del pueblo, los herejes, y para burla de los amos, los castigados.
In any event, living on the seventh floor of an apartment building with no elevator had something about it that isolated us from the city, and since on the other floors there were only offices, after seven in the evening the building was ours, as if to compensate for the cramped arrangement of a living room integrated with the kitchen—stove, refrigerator, pantry—separated only by the high counter we used as a table, integrated in turn by two high stools that resembled the racks where they placed heretics, to the derision of the people, and the punished, to the mockery of their masters.
