It’s all in the telling.
Dear Santa: When I was a child, my father cheated on my Mom. Later, my parents divorced. Soon after, my mother died in a car accident My brother and I could only live in my grandma's old house. Grandma's sister was an alcoholic. The whole family lived on my grandma's savings. Grandma recently died. My Uncle Andy is barely keeping himself out of jail from day to day. My brother left home and won't talk to us any more. Dad, now 74, had to go out to work to support the family and eventually he is going to want me to do the same thing. Yours sincerely.

Fascinates me that English has the positively connotated _solitude_ vs the negatively connotated _loneliness_. Italian only has _solitudine_ with its ambiguity, which would make this cover page too ambiguous.
