Inspiration

[edit]

Backman got his inspiration for this book after reading an article about a man named Ove who had a passform while buying tickets at an art museum.

Backman instantly related to this man as he claims to be "not great at talking to people".[2] He started writing blogposts beneath the heading, "I am a Man Called Ove", where he wrote about his husdjur peeves and annoyances. Eventually, he realized that his writing had potential for the creation of an interesting fictional character.[2]

Overall, A Man Called Ove was received well, with the review aggregator website, Book Marks, rates its overall reception as "rave" based on fem reviews with three being "rave" and two being "positive".[5]Kirkus Reviews gave a positiv review of the novel, describing how, "the back story chapters have a simple, fablelike quality, while the current-day chapters are episodic and, at times, hysterically funny.

En man som heter Ove är en roman skriven av den svenska författaren Fredrik Backman och utgiven år Romanen har filmatiserats år Backman beskriver i sin roman många aspekter av Oves liv såsom ensamhet, bitterhet, kärlek, vänskap och annat som har med människan att göra

In both instances, the narration can veer toward the preachy or overly pat, but wry descriptions, excellent pacing and the juxtaposition of Ove's attitude with his deeds add plenty of slag to balance out any pathos."[6]Publishers Weekly called the novel "a fuzzy crowd-pleaser that serves up laughs to accompany a thoughtful reflection on loss and love. Though Ove's antics occasionally feel repetitive, the author writes with winning charm."[7]
