Author: Fredrik Backman

10,36 €

A failed bank robbery brings a mismatched group of people into a hostage situation during an apartment viewing. Fredrik Backman turns the tense event into a comedy about fear, loneliness and the need for understanding. Behind confused statements, the participants' personal stories gradually emerge.

About the book

The people who happen to meet in one apartment bring their own worries and assumptions about others. The crisis makes them react to one another in ways that the police investigation cannot easily organize. Each perspective adds another layer to the events.

The novel combines humor, misunderstandings and a sensitive view of human vulnerability. Alongside the question of what happened in the apartment, it explores how little people know about one another and how much listening can matter.

Main themes

  • Misunderstandings: Different perspectives on a single event.
  • Loneliness: Private worries behind a public face.
  • Understanding: The possibility of seeing someone differently.

Who is it for?

For readers of social novels combining humor, mystery and an emphasis on human relationships.

Literary context

The novel inspired the Swedish miniseries Anxious People (2021), directed by Felix Herngren.
