FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE BESTSELLER "My Grandmother Sends Her Regards and Apologizes." Ove is fifty-nine years old and lives alone. He has strict principles and a routine that never changes. Every day he inspects the neighborhood and checks whether the rules set by the homeowners' association are being followed.
The neighbors consider him inaccessible, cold, and cantankerous. The world constantly disappoints him, and he does not hesitate to show his displeasure at every opportunity. One day, the noisy new neighbors from the opposite house destroy his mailbox while trying to park a trailer. And thus, the quarrels begin, along with an unexpected friendship that changes not only Ove's life but also that of the entire neighborhood.
Fredrik Backman's first book, which made him internationally famous, is published in 43 countries and has been adapted into a film. A funny, moving, and deeply human story about loneliness, the challenges of human relationships, and the humanity that can be hidden where one least expects it.
"You will laugh, you will cry, you will feel compassion for every twisted person you've met." PEOPLE
