Backman is quickly becoming one of my favourite writers. He’s witty, sharp and has an incomparable ability to grasp his reader’s attention quickly. This is a book that intimately focuses on his characters rather than a story. The plot unfolds carefully while allowing characters to unravel as well. A hard lesson at empathy and reminding us that everyone is fighting a battle we know nothing about. Phenomenal.
