Colorful candies, imaginative, rebellious: why adults suddenly set up their homes like children's rooms. Come and visit me in my new apartment. You don't hesitate for long when your friend, whom you knew from school and who had been in hiding for a long time, invites you to coffee.

To anticipate the logistics of the holidays, with an overheated mental load. But also a month of gloom for those in whom Christmas revives feelings of loneliness...
