The House of Our Dreams by Jean-Pierre Martinez
A couple has just bought the house of their dreams at a surprisingly low price.
What could have happened in this house that caused it to remain unsold for so long? The previous owners died there under circumstances as dramatic as they were mysterious… A philosophical countdown about the tragicomic fate of humanity in general, and of the couple in particular.
