days ago at point-blank ask a friend who is in Elba: "How big is your island?" Well, a little 'over Palermo ... " With about 30,000 residents in the winter, as well as 300,000 in the summer. In front of 700,000 in Palermo, fairly stable.
Hence a comparison fast, between Palermo and noisy little fond of rules and Elba, closed nature by isolating the nth degree, a bit 'guinea a bit' racist. So inclined to speak out loud, at any time. Just like a Palermo.
meanders on the broad vowels, so southern and "candles", the colorful Tuscan cursing, thrown down without any restraint, but without excessive malice.
The chat with his friend ends with a shared reflection: after all, in the world, there are islands that closed and invisible, are not always separated from the rest of the world.

The miracle is, perhaps, one: when the islands can, together, to talk.
