His father had been a sailor, like himself, that is to say, not a real sailor, but a carpenter on board ship, and he went off on long expeditions and most Christmases he had been away.

Son père avait été marin, comme lui, c'est-à-dire pas vraiment marin, mais charpentier à bord d'un navire, et il partait pour de longues expéditions. Et donc, la plupart des Noëls, il avait été absent.
