Tanto più che la signora Maigret non sta bene: i primi acciacchi, le piccole riparazioni obbligate - lo spettro della vecchiaia. E dunque un Maigret tetro e assente ad ascoltare lo sfogo di Xavier Marton, un uomo comune, in apparenza, del tutto simile alle migliaia di commessi che alle sei di...

Se "la vecchia" ha proprio con lui, Vladimir, un rapporto così speciale, è perché loro due si somigliano: provano entrambi un profondo disgusto per tutto quanto li circonda, e la medesima pietà per se stessi. Due mascalzoni infelici, intrisi di amarezza e di cinismo, questo sono.
