Chapter 24: The Fall of Aurelio Costanzo
Luca did not raise his voice.
He took a folded page from his breast pocket and shook it open.
It was the last sheet of the contract, soft at the creases from a month in his coat, with my father's loopy blue signature at the bottom.
"I will read one line," he said to the dais. "Costanzo had it typed. My wife struck it through."
He found it with his finger.
"Given by her father: Aurelio Costanzo."
He moved his finger down to the line written beneath, in ink that had run in the rain.
"By my own hand."
The old men did not move.
"He gave his daughter. That is the word. Given. I said at my own table, in front of ten men, that no one had asked her name."
He turned, and looked at my father.
"I'm asking you now, in front of the families. What did you do?"
My father sat with his hands on his knees.
"I arranged a marriage," he said hoarsely.
"Say it again."
"I arranged a marriage for my daughter, to end a war," my father said.
"No."
"Don Vannelli."
"I will not ask a third time," Luca said, very softly. "Tell them what you traded."
