'You can be whatever you want to be, but that's nowhere near as important as knowing that you can be exactly who you are'
In between the sleep-obsessed lows and oxytocin-fuelled highs, Backman takes a step back to share his own experience of fatherhood and how he navigates such unchartered territory.
Part memoir, part manual, part love letter to his son, this book relays the big and the small lessons in life.
As he watches his son take his first steps into the world, he teaches him how to navigate both love - and IKEA - and tries to explain why, sometimes, his dad might hold his hand just a little bit too tightly.
This is an irresistible and insightful collection from one of the world's most beautiful storytellers - the bestselling author of A Man Called Ove and Beartown.

Eigentlich ist das eine alte Geschichte, schon 2012 (glaube ich) in Schweden veröffentlicht worden. Tja, und nun auch hier auf Deutsch erschienen. Warum wohl? Weil man wahrscheinlich auch das Telefonbuch verkaufen könnte wenn Fredrik Backman es neu geschrieben hätte. Ich hatte schon so meine Befürchtungen, konnte aber trotzdem nicht widerstehen. 9,99 Euro für knapp 200 Seiten ... und das erste Fredrik Backman Buch das mich nicht berührt hat. Dennoch mag ich seine Art mit Worten umzugehen einfach zu sehr um richtig enttäuscht zu sein. Ich gehe einfach mal fest davon aus dass das das "Schlechteste" war was ich jemals von ihm gelesen habe und freue mich aufs nächste richtige Buch.
