Los hombres le convidan puros, le palmean una rodilla con confianza antes de preguntarle por quién piensa votar —casi todos vienen de la izquierda, un pasado al que ya no pertenecen pero que sigue dictándoles gestos, conductas, reacciones, maneras de hablar, como un país del que alguna vez se exiliaron, al que nunca piensan volver pero al que deben todo y no olvidarán jamás—, le ofrecen sus versátiles carteras de contactos por si necesita un crédito, comprar una heladera con descuento o hacerse imprimir invitaciones de casamiento gratis.
The men offer him cigars and slap him confidentially on the knee before asking him who he’s planning to vote for—almost all of them started out on the left, and though they no longer belong to that past, it still dictates their gestures, behavior, reactions, and manner of speaking, like a country they once fled and have no intention of going back to, though they owe it everything and will never forget it—or offer him their varied contact lists in case he needs a loan, a discounted refrigerator, or free printing for some wedding invitations.
