A Man Called Ove

The million-copy bestselling phenomenon, Fredrik Backman's heartwarming debut is a funny, moving, uplifting tale of love and community that will leave you with a spring in your step. Perfect for fans of Rachel Joyce's "The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry," Graeme Simsion's "The Rosie Project," and David Nicholls' "Us."

New York Times bestseller: "Warm, funny, and almost unbearably moving" - Daily Mail. "Rescued all those men who constantly mean to read novels but never get round to it" - Spectator Books of the Year.

At first sight, Ove is almost certainly the grumpiest man you will ever meet. He thinks himself surrounded by idiots - neighbors who can't reverse a trailer properly, joggers, shop assistants who talk in code, and the perpetrators of the vicious coup d'état that ousted him as Chairman of the Residents' Association. He will persist in making his daily inspection rounds of the local street.
