Beschreibung
About love, proper tools, and why it's important to drive a Saab. You surely know that old grouch – he knows everything and does it best, hoards senselessly, acts like a self-appointed guardian of order in the vicinity, and constantly annoys others with trivialities because 'it's a matter of principle.' But life has dealt Ove a tough hand. Now at 59, he was replaced as the chairman of the homeowners' association a few years ago, his wife recently passed away, and he was sent into retirement at work. Can you blame him for wanting nothing more than peace from those around him for an effectively executed suicide? In a world where people switch car brands and can't fix anything with their own hands, there's no place for him anymore. But his new neighbors, who awkwardly crash into Ove's mailbox instead of greeting him, and the intrusive stray cat that keeps wandering through his garden, just can't seem to understand... The audiobook, narrated by the excellent Jan Vlasák, tells a story of friendship that can restore the will to live, even when it seems like life has lost its meaning. Someone has to teach those fools how to drive properly and what a real car is! 'If Ove were to have anything engraved on his tombstone, it would be: He always thought about fuel consumption.' Length of recording: 8 hours 46 minutes.
