"I desire a lot of women, almost all of them, really. It's my way of hating them, because they give me reason to. They won't have anything to do with me."

In the séance that forms the backdrop to Italo Svevo's _The Broken Triangle_, a fantasy in one act, the spirit of the prematurely dead Clelia is summoned from the hereafter by her husband and by her lover. She appears in nebulous form to the two men to mediate a dispute between them, but their requests--one scabrous, the other venal--soon force her to withdraw.

_The Broken Triangle_ was the only one of Svevo's plays to be staged in his lifetime.
