| “I didn’t go to Torni very often in the 1960s; it wasn’t something students would have done at that time. But I didn’t forget Torni either. At a very young age, in the autumn of 1964, I worked as the acting senior lecturer in German and French languages at the Ressu School next to Torni. I watched Torni’s façade thoughtfully from the school’s teachers’ room. Even at the time, Torni held a special place in my mind. A couple of years later, when I graduated with my Master’s degree, I took my mother out for a meal at Torni. For a young man who had only recently purchased a leather vest, it was a symbol of prosperity and success.” Tarmo Kunnas |
