It was an unusually large package, which the postman had to deliver. It was so big that he couldn’t tuck it under his arm, but had to hold it with both hands, to carry it up the stairs.
Era un paquete insólitamente grande el que el cartero debía entregar, tan grande que no podía llevarlo bajo el brazo sino que debía sostenerlo con ambas manos para poder subirlo por las escaleras.
