The Words That Remain, by Stenio Gardel (trans by Bruna Lobato)
You are a 70 year old Brazilian blue collar worker, looking back at a life lived mostly in the closet, after falling so in love as a teen that you and your lover said it loud; you were separated forever, but not before he wrote you a letter, which you never read because you were, and still are, illiterate.
