At night, outside in the yard, my sisters and I looked up at the firmament. The firmament: that was a word we’d learnt from the Fathers. I liked that word. I said it to myself again and again. For us, the firmament was the little flock of clouds floating around the moon, like gilded flakes. And those clouds of the firmament could only be the marvellous loaves of bread that were waiting for us in heaven, the heaven over our heads or the one the Fathers were forever telling us about. But in any case, we were sure that in heaven there was much more bread, and much better bread, and much cheaper, than at Kilimadame’s.
