Closed at home for more than good security reasons, we find ourselves with more time in our hands than we used to manage. And after you've emptied your Netflix catalog, finished your video games and cooked everything your patience allowed you to cook, you'll just have to sit on the couch and open a book.

After reading it, you'll look at Kaiser Karl's work with completely different eyes.
