Uniform title:
Man
som heter
Ove
. English.
Description:
295 p. ; 23 cm.
Summary:
There is something about
Ove
. At first sight, he is almost certainly the grumpiest
man
you will ever meet. He thinks himself surrounded by idiots - neighbours who can't reverse a trailer properly, joggers, shop assistants who talk in code, and the perpetrators of the vicious coup d'etat that ousted him as Chairman of the Residents' Association. He will persist in making his daily inspection rounds of the local streets. 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?
