The bullfight (p145)

 

« The bullfight on the second day was much better than on the first »

« Romero never made any contortions, always it was straight and pure and natural in line »

« Romero’s bullfighting gave real emotion »

« I told her about watching the bull, not the horse, when the bulls charged the picadors »
