Trading Cities 2 by Italo Calvino


As described by the author, Chloe is a great city, where the people who move through the streets are all strangers and do not know each other. The people in the city imagine thousand things that could happen to one another as "meetings which could take place between them, conversations, surprises, caresses, bites." But no one talks to each other, they just keep staring to each others eyes without saying any word. In this city people never stop seeking other eyes, that is strange but also beautiful. It shows us that fantasies about each other will never stop no matter what.
