Dialogue at the hairdresser’s

- Oh, wait a second, I’ll get my book.

- Why?

- To read.

- (pause) Why?


It’s a true story. Actually, after the 2-nd “Why?” I gave up and suppressing a smile started to read. After another pause the girl said: I’ve just never seen it before. 

 Do you think she was exaggerating? Are those weird creatures reading books really threatened with extinction?

    Oh, I have, multitudes! It’s common to be sitting in the hairdresser’s chair looking at yourself in the mirror. I guess your love for yourself here should be no less than by Oscar Wilde: “To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance”. To be able to admire your reflection for hours!

    Exaggerating? Not at all! At best visitors of beauty salons leaf over fashion magazines. I don't recall seeing somebody with a book there. Just like your hairdresser! )))))))))))))
