Auch in seinem vierten Buch über sein Leben als Tierarzt spürt man, dass er mit ganzem Herzen bei der Sache ist, dass er seinen Patienten, den Tieren, wie auch ihren Besitzern, die manchmal mehr seiner Behandlung bedürfen als die Vierbeiner, mit liebevollem Verständnis begegnet.

Natale è tempo di scelte e divisioni. Prima di discutere su pranzo o cenone, albero o presepe, panettone o pandoro, ci si confronta sulla festa stessa. Per alcuni, è magia e desiderio di bontà; per altri, è solo stress e routine. Si fronteggiano così gli amanti del Natale e i contrari, ma esiste una terra di mezzo ricca di sfumature. Questa raccolta nasce dal desiderio di esplorare questa via, offrendo punti di vista originali a chi è stanco delle opposizioni scontate. Le voci di autori italiani contemporanei e di penne internazionali si alternano per guidarvi in un viaggio inatteso. Pino Cacucci, Gianrico Carofiglio, Piero Colaprico e Antonio Pascale vi porteranno lungo le vie più oscure del male, mentre Maeve Brennan, James Herriot, Roberto Perrone e Nadia Terranova dimostreranno che anche il Natale più classico ha le sue crepe. Andrea Molesini, Luca Ricci e Jean Stafford presenteranno protagonisti insospettabili alle prese con lo spirito natalizio, mentre Morley Callaghan, Mavis Gallant e James Thurber evidenzieranno l'importanza di lasciarsi sorprendere. Le migliori sorprese, infatti, sono quelle che sfidano le aspettative, e il Natale non fa eccezione: ogni Natale ha un suo perché, purché non sembri Natale.
