There's so much violence in the book. Here's a quote: "Bulldog started the fight, Joar finished it. Bulldog fought like a madman, but Joar fought like a whole gang. When Joar got home his old man broke the radiator with him.

Something about Backman's writing style rubs me the wrong way. Perhaps it's the sweeping generalizations he makes. An example: "Forget it! No one will understand" the voice inside our heads hisses to us. Then it repeats the same lies that all broken children have to listen to: "There's something wrong with you! No one else feels the way you do!" I hate that the author terms his characters 'Broken Children.'
