About This Book

Grandpa and Noah are sitting on a bench in a square that keeps getting smaller every day. The square is strange but also familiar, full of the odds and ends that have made up their lives: Grandpa's work desk, the stuffed dragon that Grandpa once gave to Noah, the sweet-smelling hyacinths that Grandma loved to grow in her garden. From the New York Times bestselling author of A Man Called Ove, My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She&#x;s Sorry, and Britt-Marie Was Here comes an exquisitely moving portrait of an elderly man&#x;s struggle to hold on to his most precious memories, and his family&#x;s efforts to care for him even as they must find a way to let go With all the same charm of his bestselling full-length novels, here Fredrik Backman once again reveals his unrivaled understanding of human nature and deep compassion for people in difficult circumstances. This is a tiny gem with a message you&#x;ll treasure for a lifetime. -- Provided by publisher.
