A MAN CALLED OVE - FREDRIK BACKMAN
Here is a bestselling and delightfully quirky debut novel from Swedish author Fredrik Backman’. Winner of the 2014 Book Browse Debut Novel Award, the book was then made into a hugely successful film
Meet Ove. He’s the kind of man who has staunch principles, strict routines, and a short fuse. A grumpy yet loveable man finds his solitary world turned on its head when a boisterous young family moves in next door. A throwback to the era of strong, silent ,principled men, Who did what was right, simply because it was there to be done.
Written in a simple , honest fashion with huge dollops of tongue in cheek humor, you will find yourself smiling, even giggling and then shedding the occasional tear as you share wholly believable incidents and emotions with this bunch of neighbors that build their bonds and unlikely relationships. A heart warming story with deeply endearing characters.
