Quote #4
of his winter coat, who brings her lists of items
that he reads to her like poetry, (34-35)
This is probably the highest compliment you can pay to any piece of writing: read it like a poem. Even if you're saying "milk, eggs, support hose," treating a shopping list like poetry shows just how meaningful those items are to you. And reading in your home language makes that doubly-important.
