About this product

Product Information

The number 1 bestseller by the author of New York Times bestseller and international phenomenon A MAN CALLED OVE, BRITT-MARIE WAS HERE is a funny, poignant and uplifting tale of love, community, and second chances. For as long as anyone can remember, Britt-Marie has been an acquired taste. It's not that she's judgemental, or fussy, or difficult - she just expects things to be done in a certain way. A cutlery drawer should be arranged in the right order, for example (forks, knives, then spoons). We're not animals, are we? But behind the passive-aggressive, socially awkward, absurdly pedantic busybody is a woman who has more imagination, bigger dreams and a warmer heart than anyone around her realizes. So when Britt-Marie finds herself unemployed, separated from her husband of 20 years, left to fend for herself in the miserable provincial backwater that is Borg - of which the kindest thing one can say is that it has a road going through it - and somehow tasked with running the local football team, she is a little unprepared. But she will learn that life may have more to offer her that she's ever realised, and love might be found in the most unexpected of places.

5 out of 5 stars
by sarahf*1002 Mar, 2017
As brilliant as 'A man called Ove' sensitive, funny, unforgettable. Loved it.
The book reads as if your are there in Borg! A remote town with road running through it! Brit Marie's character is poignant, rediculous but sad. The other characters in the book reveal their eccentricities as the story unfolds and find a way into your heart. The cleaning product Faxin and the arrangement of the cutlery drawer figures prominently throughout the book!! Football is the true love of the inhabitants of Borg. However since the ruin of the town due to lack of council support and unemployment there is no football pitch or goal posts. Despite the lack of facilities the enthusiasm for the game remains positive. Brit Marie through default becomes the coach of the team. One should mention here that there is a wonderful rapport between Brit Marie and the girl from the unemployment office throughout the book. This was the reason for her being in Borg in the first place! There Are several choices to be made by Brit Marie in the closing chapters of this book. Will she choose the past, present, or something else? One feels exhilarated reading this book!Read full review
