About This Book

Keski-ikäinen naimaton mies punnitsee avioliiton pelkoa ja arkisten mukavuuksien houkutusta, kun joulun aika ja naapurin juhla vievät hänet leikilliseen, unenomaisen sävyiseen tilanteeseen. Juhlinnan äänet, koristeet ja lapsen leikit sekoittuvat hänen väsymykseensä ja harhaisiin näkynsä, ja arjen esineet saavat kummallisia merkityksiä. Kertomus etenee humoristisina episodeina, joissa sosiaalinen painostus, muistot ja käytännön huolet kuljettavat häntä kohti odottamatonta elämänmuutosta samalla pohdiskellen iän, tottumusten ja kodin roolia.
