European Resistance Archive/European Resistance Archive (ERA)
-
It’s not like someone stopped me from going, it’s just that it was enough to learn the basics of reading and writing.
-
Later, in the army, I used to write letters for a fellow soldier from Guastalla and two more who were from the mountains.
-
They were my age but didn’t know how to write: I was not better than them, but I had gone to school until third grade.
-
Reflecting history
-
I care about these stories.
-
Not so much for myself.
-
Rather for the benefit they convey to those who listen and want to think about them.
-
It was real life.
-
I’m not exaggerating things, even those episodes that are quite sensational.
-
I rather focus on reflecting on them. It’s all about the 20th century, about the way we lived through it.
-
Activities after the war
-
I went back home. I knew I would find the same situation I had left behind.
-
In the mountains I had become another person.
-
I was respected and highly esteemed. Not only because of my stripes,
-
but because of the way I took care of difficult operations.
-
I didn’t want to go back home constantly having to listen to what my father or my brother said.
-
As soon as I got home I told my father I didn’t want to work at home anymore.
-
I wanted to shape my own life, find a job and become self-sufficient.
-
At home I felt repressed. My father agreed.
-
I started working, setting up women sections and the feminist movement.
