About this book
After a life organized around spotless cupboards, fixed routines, and a marriage that has abruptly changed, sixty-three-year-old Britt-Marie takes a job in the struggling Swedish town of Borg. She knows almost nothing about children or football, yet soon finds herself responsible for a ragtag youth team and drawn into the concerns of her unconventional neighbours. Backman gives Britt-Marie plenty of comic rigidity but takes her loneliness seriously as she begins to imagine a life of her own. The result is a warm, accessible Swedish story about second chances, community, and unexpected courage.
