What a crotchety old man! I love him. Reminds me of my grandfather in many, and often uncomfortable, ways.
I feel like each of us knows somebody like Ove—a headstrong elder from an earlier generation who's hopelessly out-of-sync with the modern ways of the world. But with age comes wisdom, only this wisdom is buried beneath a shell that's been hardened from a lifetime of experiences.
Give this book a try. You'd have to be far crotchetier than Ove not to be moved by his story.
