萨利·普瑞提斯是那些在越南战争最后一段时间被人们称为“寡妇”的女孩子当中的一个。她们会按照要求,在只有一间卧室的公寓里和美军士兵,有时还可能和美国军官,住上一个星期到十天的时间。在厨房的抽屉内,有精心准备的蜡烛,供他们亲昵地在夜晚使用。窗台上还摆着一盆天竺葵。 Sali Pretiz was one of those girls who were called “widows” for the last time in the Vietnam War. They would, on request, spend a week to ten days living with American soldiers and sometimes with U.S. officers in a one-bedroom apartment. Inside the kitchen drawer, there are carefully prepared candles for their affectionate use at night. On the window sill was a pot of geranium.
