Reader reviews for Un Hombre Llamado Ove / A Man Called Ove

From the publisher

El libro tras Un hombre llamado Otto, la pelcula de 2022 con Tom Hanks y Mariana Trevio.

Una historia repleta de humor, sentimiento y sabidura, que nos sumerge en el mundo de un protagonista entraable e inolvidable.

La novela en la que se bas tambin Un hombre llamado Ove, pelcula nominada en 2016 a 2 premios Oscar.

« Acaso tengo que andar todo el da sonriendo como un bobo?

Ove no es el tpico vecino con el que te apetece cruzarte en el barrio. Es un cascarrabias, un pesado que insiste hasta la exageracin en mantener el orden y la disciplina, un casi sesentn solitario y resentido a quien el destino ha arrebatado demasiadas cosas.

Sin embargo, en la vida de Ove algo est a punto de cambiar. Una serie de circunstancias fortuitas van devolvindole poco a poco la fe en el gnero humano. Y, al mismo tiempo, las personas que le rodean comienzan a comprender que su barrio no sera el mismo sin el grun de Ove. Sera un lugar ms fro, menos solidario y, aunque parezca mentira, tambin mucho menos divertido... porque, al final, todo el mundo quiere a Ove.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The book that inspired the movie A Man Called Otto, with Tom Hanks and Mariana Trevio.

Read the New York Times bestseller that has taken the world by storm!

Meet Ove. He's a curmudgeon--the kind of man who points at people he dislikes as if they were burglars caught outside his bedroom window. He has staunch principles, strict routines, and a short fuse. People call him "the bitter neighbor from hell." But must Ove be bitter just because he doesn't walk around with a smile plastered to his face all the time?

Behind the cranky exterior there is a story and a sadness. So when one November morning a chatty young couple with two chatty young daughters move in next door and accidentally flatten Ove's mailbox, it is the lead-in to a comical and heartwarming tale of unkempt cats, unexpected friendship, and the ancient art of backing up a U-Haul. All of which will change one cranky old man and a local residents' association to their very foundations.

A feel-good story in the spirit of The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry and Major Pettigrew's Last Stand, Fredrik Backman's novel about the angry old man next door is a thoughtful exploration of the profound impact one life has on countless others. "If there was an award for 'Most Charming Book of the Year, ' this first novel by a Swedish blogger-turned-overnight-sensation would win hands down" (Booklist, starred review).
