The Sins of the Father – Jeffrey Archer R65.00 Add to cart.But she will learn that life may have more to offer her that she’s ever realised, and love might be found in the most unexpected of places. So when Britt-Marie finds herself unemployed, separated from her husband of 20 years, left to fend for herself in the miserable provincial backwater that is Borg – of which the kindest thing one can say is that it has a road going through it – and somehow tasked with running the local football team, she is a little unprepared. We’re not animals, are we? But behind the passive-aggressive, socially awkward, absurdly pedantic busybody is a woman who has more imagination, bigger dreams and a warmer heart than anyone around her realizes. A cutlery drawer should be arranged in the right order, for example (forks, knives, then spoons). The recreation center and the pizzeria have not been closed down, but that’s only because they haven’t had time to do.
Borg, a community built along a road, is almost closed down. It’s not that she’s judgemental, or fussy, or difficult – she just expects things to be done in a certain way. In Fredrik Backman’s third novel, BRITT-MARIE WAS HERE, the heroine must find herself and who she has been for the past 40 years. For as long as anyone can remember, Britt-Marie has been an acquired taste. The number 1 European bestseller by the author of New York Times bestseller and international phenomenon A Man Called Ove, Britt-Marie was Here is a funny, poignant and uplifting tale of love, community, and second chances.
