Il coltello di Tarzan

I learnt this strange story when speaking to a man over several bottles of well-aged wine. Not only is it an odd story, it’s one I would never have believed if it were not for some official documents and the diary of a man who died long ago.

 Tarzan impara a leggere

He understood that he resembled more a m-a-n than an a-p-e. He discovered that Sabor was a l-i-o-n-e-s-s and Tantor an e-l-e-p-h-a-n-t. This was how Tarzan learnt to read and write: alone, in a remote hut in the jungle, without ever having seen a human or heard its voice.
