A delight to read
The charming story of a Swedish Victor Meldrew type, the well-painted characters he meets, and the changing society he battles with. Full of heart, it DOES make you laugh and cry (as promised on the cover). One to recommend to your friends after you've read it.

Brilliant book, unexpectedly funny and touching. Even though it's set in Sweden it is uncannily similar to UK. Backman is a mstaer story teller

Stirred emotions.
Saw the film, read the book. Both made me cry at the end. The book, as with any book lets you use your imagination. A riveting good read. It was a perfect buy.
