Description

For as long as anyone can remember, Britt-Marie has been an acquired taste. It's not that she's judgemental, fussy or difficult - she just expects things to be done in a certain way. A cutlery drawer should be arranged in the right order, for example (forks, knives and then spoons). But behind the passive-aggressive, socially awkward, pedantic busybody is a woman who has more imagination, bigger dreams and a warmer heart than anyone around her realises. So when Britt-Marie finds herself unemployed and separated from her husband of 20 years, she learns that life may have more to offer her than she's ever realised.

Professional reviews

"The No.1 European bestseller by the author of international phenomenon A Man Called Ove. “Backman hits a nice note between overly sweet and hard-boiled fiction; excellent for book clubs.” LIBRARY JOURNAL “Britt-Marie’s metamorphosis from cocoon to butterfly seems all the more remarkable for the utterly discouraging environment in which it takes place.” BOOKLIST"
