Sibilla Aleramo (born Marta Felicina Faccio; 14 August 1876 - 13 January 1960) was an Italian feminist writer and poet known for her autobiographical depictions of life as a woman in late 19th century Italy.
I am so good all day long.
I understand, I accept, I do not weep.
I almost learn to be proud as if I were a man.
But, at the first quiver of violet in the sky
all daytime strength vanishes.
Man Ray | A l'heure de l'observatoire, les Amoureux, 1970
