The main character, who goes by just one name (presumably his first, but I can't be sure), has a knack for seeing the beauty hidden in the ugliness of urban life. We can all identify with Marcovaldo, much as we do with Thurber's Walter Mitty. They are both daydreamers.
Lamore per la natura di Marcovaldo è quello che può nascere solo in un uomo di città: per questo non possiamo sapere nulla duna sua provenienza extracittadina, questo estraneo alla città è il cittadino per eccellenza.
