“Quasi non ci sono personaggi, in questa storia, e quasi non ci sono confronti drammatici, perché la maggior parte degli individui che vi figurano sono mal ridotti, sono solo trastulli indifferenti in mano a forze immense. Uno dei principali effetti della guerra è, in fondo, che la gente è scoraggiata dal farsi personaggio.”
