A man called Ove: a novel
(Book)
Description
Meet Ove. Curmudgeon. The kind of man who points at people he dislikes as if they were burglars caught outside his bedroom window. He has staunch principles, strict routines-- and a short fuse. People think him bitter-- and he thinks himself surrounded by idiots. One November morning a chatty young couple with two chatty young daughters move in next door and accidentally flatten Ove's mailbox, shaking up Ove's well-ordered, solitary world, chainging Ove-- and those he meets-- in this comical and heartwarming tale of unkempt cats, unexpected friendship-- and the ancient art of backing up a U-Haul.
