- Sen kuulen, että Aaron vaimon nimi on Katriina. Se on aikuinen nimi, pitkähelmaisen ja säännöllisesti kampaajalla käyvän naisen nimi. Katriinat ovat rouvia, jotka tapaavat ystävättäriä helsinkiläisissä kahviloissa, tekevät kotiin pieniä hankintoja, posliinikannuja saippuakuppeja sieviä pölyhuiskuja.
- I do hear that Aaro's wife is named Katriina. That's a grown-up name, the name of a woman who wears long skirts and often goes to the hairdressers. Katriinas are ladies that meet their acquaintances at Helsinki cafés, shop for little things to the home, china pitchers, soap cups, neat dusting whisks.
