“You have to position yourself somewhere right between “What a great guy!” and “He seems . . . weird.” That’s your sweet spot.”
It’s official: Backman is my new favorite author. His characters are always relatable and loaded with that great balance of humor, compassion and sarcasm. And his books are so quotable. Another one that made me chuckle:
“Lucas opens the door with the defeated manner of a sausage that dressed itself up as a carrot to avoid being eaten by a bear, only to be found by a rabbit.”
