The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed out of the Window and Disappeared

The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed out of the Window and Disappeared by Jonas Jonasson quickly became an international bestselling sensation, winning praise from the author’™s native Sweden where his novel is set, across Europe, to the reviews in British press.Described as ‘œcompletely crazy, hilarious, zany, overflowing with humour”, etc, the book describes the adventures of an elderly man who escapes from an old people’™s home to avoid his one-hundredth birthday party. As his escapades unfold, his earlier life is revealed; a life in which, remarkably, he played a key role behind the scenes in some of the momentous events of the 20th century – leafing through the book you will quickly spot many names of the great and the good and the not-so-good.An enjoyable addition to the current unending, it seems, Scandinavian invasion of Britain!
