This loving monologue tells of the affectionate relationship between an elderly man and his three grandchildren: Giorgina, 5 years old; Giulio, 3 years old and Bice, who is 2. Tender ties of affection and complicity link the children to their grandfather; the children, with their free and vivacious temperaments, are “drunk with paradise.” When the grandfather and the youngsters are together, he becomes one of them: “Even though I’m their grandfather,” he says, “I sometimes turn into a grandson, too.”
