When you see the Advent calendar hanging on the wall, you know the countdown has finally truly begun: Christmas bares its teeth and threatens with consequences for body and mind. Staunch haters of mulled wine are forced to visit Christmas markets and fathers are dispatched to schools as Saint Nicholas. Children are transformed into monsters demanding gifts and wives are turned into nervous baking wrecks. And of course, the holiday nights even less silent when the Italian father-in-law comes to visit and bestow gifts on the children dressed as a witch. Jan Weiler’s presents the best Christmas stories from his book Maria, ihm schmeckt’s nicht and the series Mein Leben als Mensch.
