“C’est l’histoire d’un photographe fatigué, d’une fille patiente, d’horreurs banales et d’un chat pénible”, écrit Larcenet.

(Sans parler du chat ou d’Émilie, le moindre canapé est craquant.) Le combat ordinaire, histoire légère et bouleversante d’une renaissance, est l’album le plus personnel de Larcenet.
