texto simples:

"In the corridor I was approached by an old man, in some perplexity. «Excuse me», he said, «Bylinski - is he ours (nasz)?» Yes. I said, he's ours. Zzzick, zzick, went the pen, as he crossed out all the National List, muttering to himself, «I've had enough of them, all these years...» Then, taking the pink sheet, «And Findesein, is he ours?» Yes, he's ours. «And Trzeciakowski, where is he?» We scanned the closely printed sheet together. At which point a clucking Electoral Commission secretary came up to me and asked, with nervous aggression, «What role are you playing here?» - as if I might reply, «An agent of imperialism.»"
