Overview
The million-copy bestselling phenomenon: a funny, moving, uplifting tale of love and community that will leave you with a spring in your step. Now a major film starring Tom Hanks
''Warm, funny, and almost unbearably moving'' Daily Mail
Ove is almost certainly the grumpiest man you will ever meet. He thinks himself surrounded by idiots - joggers, neighbours who can''t reverse a trailer properly and shop assistants who talk in code.
But isn''t it rare, these days, to find such old-fashioned clarity of belief and deed? Such unswerving conviction about what the world should be, and a lifelong dedication to making it just so?
In the end, you will see, there is something about Ove that is quite irresistible . . .
''Hilarious and heart-breaking''
Stylist
''Rescued all those men who constantly mean to read novels but never get round to it''
