The Deal Of A Lifetime

Fans of Beartown and A Man Called Ove will love this festive novella, from the 13 million copy internationally bestselling author.

It is Christmas Eve and a father and son are meeting for the first time in years.

The father has a story he needs to share before it's too late. As he tells his son about a courageous little girl lying in a hospital bed a few miles away, he reveals even more about himself; his triumphs in business, his failures as a parent, his past regrets, his hopes for the future.

Now, on this night before Christmas, the father has been given the unexpected chance to do something remarkable that could change the destiny of a little girl he hardly knows. But before he can make the deal of a lifetime, he must find out what his own life has actually been worth, and only his son can reveal the answer.

With humour and compassion, Fredrik Backman's novella The Deal of a Lifetime reminds us that life is a fleeting gift, and our legacies rest in how we share that gift with those we love.

Backman Fredrik

Fredrik Backman (rođen 1981) započeo je karijeru kao jedan od najpoznatijih švedskih blogera i kolumnista.

Debitovao je u književnosti 2012. godine, kada je objavio međunarodni fenomen Čovek po imenu Uve.

Neobično smiješni, dirljivi i mudri, Backmanovi romani su odiseje običnih ljudi i zadivljujuće priče o svakodnevnoj hrabrosti. Fredrik Bakman je dosad napisao pet romana – svi su dobili pohvale kritike i postali međunarodni bestseleri – i jedno djelo iz oblasti publicistike. Romani su mu prodati u dvanaest miliona primjeraka širom svieta.

Čovek po imenu Uve je preveden na četrdeset četiri jezika i nalazi se na petom mjestu u Velikoj Britaniji po broju prodatih primjeraka u 2016. godini, a 2017. ova priča o dopadljivom džangrizalu slavi godišnjicu kako se nalazi na listi bestselera New York Timesa.

Švedski film koji je snimljen po ovom romanu nominovan je za Oscara 2017. za najbolji strani film.
