My father was a quite skinny boy and they thought it better for him not to go to school. Auntie Frida [his mother’s sister] taught him at home, and with her help my father passed his elementary school exams two at a time, and by the time he was nine years old he had already finished the four years of elementary school. He was a very clever young boy.
Then his father said, ‘On to high-school.’ The best school was that of the Piarists, so he took him there and enrolled him.
