After a warm and lively start, we continue our literary journey! This time, we dive into the international bestseller A Man Called Ove by Swedish author Fredrik Backman — a humorous, touching, and profoundly human story about a grumpy pensioner who unexpectedly discovers a second chance at love, friendship, and life.
This novel, which has sold over five million copies worldwide, is a literary phenomenon that strikes straight at the heart. Ove is irritated by everything — from his neighbors to modern technology — but behind his stern façade lie vulnerability, loyalty, and the pain of loss.
🔎 Together, we’ll explore:– Why are anti-heroes so compelling to readers?– How does the mundane turn into heroism?– What makes a literary story truly human?
⚡️ Come along even if you haven’t finished the book — as long as you have something to say. Irony, emotion, unconventional thoughts, and personal philosophy are all welcome 🧡Curated by Roman Khomenko.
