A Man Called Ove

A Man Called Ove (2015) by Fredrik Backman — Sceptre
Sold by Crappy Old Books

Meet Ove: a grumpy, solitary man with strict routines, a love for rules, and absolutely no patience for the modern world. But behind his cranky exterior lies a heart quietly broken by loss, and a life waiting to be shaken up. When a lively young family moves in next door (with a very poorly parked trailer), Ove’s world is turned upside down in the most unexpected—and hilarious—ways.

Fredrik Backman’s A Man Called Ove is a warm, witty, and quietly profound tale of unlikely friendships, stubborn cats, and second chances. It’s about the things we lose, the people we love, and how sometimes, the most curmudgeonly of us can become the most unforgettable.

Condition: Slightly bent spine from previous grumpy reader. Smells faintly of strong coffee and pessimism. Otherwise fully readable and emotionally devastating in all the right ways.

Another heartstring-tugger, rescued from a donation bin by Crappy Old Books—because even curmudgeons deserve a second chance.

Very good condition.
