March 2022, Frankfurt. In a Neapolitan restaurant, they call me Palermitana, “a woman of the mafia,” after I ask what’s inside the arancina.
April 2022, Frankfurt. They tell me I’m a busta mista – a metaphor meaning I have more than one nationality in my blood.
May 2022, Frankfurt. At work, they call me mafiosa. Just as a joke, they say. I tell them I’m Sicilian, but not a mafiosa.
