A MAN CALLED OVE (B FORMAT)

Fredrik Backman

Henning Koch

NOW A MAJOR FILM STARRING TOM HANKS

The million-copy bestselling phenomenon: a funny moving uplifting tale of love and community that will leave you with a spring in your step.

'Warm funny and almost unbearably moving' Daily Mail

'Delightful . . . the perfect holiday read' Evening Standard

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' Spectator Books of the Year
