I still feel like a young person, but of course I’m really middle-aged, and this middle-aged man found himself in the lingerie department of a large store looking for socks with grip: anti-slip socks.



It’s a bit uncomfortable being a fifty-year-old man surrounded by bras. I had the feeling that everyone was staring at me. I shouldn’t feel ashamed but you, too, would take a second glance if you spotted a short, stout, bald man on his own looking around the lingerie…

I wrote this book because children today are often exposed to things that their parents never had to face. Military deployment was practically unknown for a… Continue
