    About this ebook

    This book summary is created for individuals who want to flesh out the important contents and are too busy to go through the entire original book. This book is not intended to replace the original book.

    Ove is "the bitter neighbor from hell." He is the cranky stickler—the curmudgeon who points his fingers and scowls at the people he detests. If Ove dislikes you, he will make it known.

    Grouchy as Ove's exterior may be, inside is a heart softened by his past. So when friendly Patrick and Parvaneh, along with their two friendly young daughters, move in one November morning and accidentally knock over Ove's mailbox, a wacky yet heartwarming tale unfolds.

    A Man Called Ove is a story of unlikely friendships, bedraggled cats, and the unknown art of backing up trailers. Fredrik Backman masterfully tells how all these will shake a grumpy old man and his local neighborhood to their cores.

    Wait no more, take action and get this book now!
