 | | They made their living as tinkers (smithies or pot-makers), re-weaving the backs and seats of old chairs, as wandering musicians, fortune-tellers and, of course, begging and stealing. | | | They live by their own law, only seeking the approval of their own fellows, oblivious to what the others (the payos) are doing or thinking. | | | The lovely 17 year old bride, our neighbour Paqui, walked down from El Coro in a cloud of white chiffon on the arm of her father (popularly known as El Conejo, The Rabbit) between two rows of admiring neighbours - even the payos came out to gape. |

| | Throughout their (recorded) history, Gypsies everywhere were resented and persecuted for one reason or another. | | | They were known by various names including Zott, Jat, Luri, Nuri, Dom, Sinti, Domarai and Athengani. | | | Perhaps this might explain why some of the singing can sound more like a tortured primal scream than a song. |

| | But all associated the gypsy figure with an unconventional femininity located in blood and bone, and with a bodily and temperamental difference figured as the result of accident or heredity. | | | Because the source of deviance remains masculine--or monstrous, in the case of Bertha--the heroine's femininity is released from stricture but not radically compromised. | | | Fedalma's discovery of kin ultimately means exile from love and home and casts her life in shadow. |

| | The most notorious manifestation of this was Pavelic's systematic and premeditated attempted genocide of the large Serb population within the NDH -over two million people - as well as that of Jews, Gypsies, and all real or perceived enemies of the regime. | | | The system of occupation in the former Yugoslavia, hastily created in April 1941 and presumably temporary in nature, was weakened from the outset by intra-Axis differences and by the consequences of their decision to install the Ustashas in power. | | | By the beginning of July tens of thousands of people, overwhelmingly Serbs, already were killed; Italian sources estimated 350,000 victims by the end of July 1941.[4] The regime introduced the methods of genocidal terror and extermination that were only later perfected by the SS Einsatzgruppen.[5] This was not incidental. |
